Extended shopping hours are bad for the bottom line
Several months ago, shopping centers that belong to the Cadillac-Fairview group extended their weekday shopping hours to 9 PM. According to a recent article in La Presse (in French), this decision not only made the life of store employees much more complicated but the increased costs has caused their profits to drop by 2% compared to stores with “normal” business hours.
Does anybody really need to be able to go to the mall 6 evenings per week?
