AMERICAN REFLECTIONS

Abstract

America is still one of the most fertile of countries in terms of its creation of new retail formats. Many of these get exported to Europe — after all, it is to the States that we owe the concepts of self‐service, the discount store, and — more recently — “targetted” or “niche” retailing. Currently there are further interesting ideas on the boil in the States. David Rogers, a retail consultant who lives in America but has a British background, here writes the first of a series of occasional “columns” on some of these developments, and makes comments about possible parallels in the UK.
