What do we know about Family Dollar?
Family Dollar has 8,000 locations across the U.S. and has been underperforming for years compared to the other dollar stores for reasons like:
- being less competitive in pricing
- having cluttered and understaffed stores, and more.
Presently, there is a macro shift of consumer spending to low-priced alternatives, such as big-box and dollar stores in order to stretch budgets.
Family Dollar plans to implement an improvement strategy which includes dropping prices (at a time where other retailers are raising prices to offset costs due to inflation), improved in-store experience and better merchandise in hopes of increasing market share.
