About this Item

Title

  • Chain stores,

Summary

  • This work argues that although the chain-store system is an inevitable development of modern business, it will not completely replace distribution through independent wholesalers and retailers. The author, Paul H. Nystrom, maintains that good management, frequent product turnover, intelligent buying, suitable location, good display of products, and well-trained employees can make both chain and independent stores successful. His conclusions and statistical charts appear on pages 24 and 25. American Memory.
