No other guide covers the complete retail picture like this exciting new volume. America's retail industry is in the midst of vast changes--superstores & giant discounters are popping up on major corners while traditional smaller stores are struggling. Malls are lagging while "power centers" are surging ahead. Who are the hottest retailers? What lies ahead? We show you the trends & a thorough analysis of careers, suppliers, finances & future growth within the industry. Meanwhile, the PLUNKETT'S RETAIL 500 FIRMS section gives you complete profiles of the leading, fastest-growing retailers across the nation. Each of these profiles is one full page, including details on each company's finances, sales growth, salaries, benefits, corporate culture, growth plans, products & services, placement of women & minorities in top posts, & executive contact names, complete with addresses, phone numbers, toll-free numbers & FAX numbers. This book includes an IBM-PC compatible diskette containing the core database of the book. Use the diskette to create your own studies, rankings & mailing lists. Here's what the critics say about other Plunkett's reference titles, "Highly recommended for public & academic users,"--CHOICE Magazine. "Full of useful information,"--Library Journal.
