How Covid has affected Retail in Hawaii (Community Matters)
Many shops have gone out of business. The host for this episode is Jay Fidell. The guest for this episode is Stephany Sofos.
Stephany Sofos helps us understand how Covid has affected Retail in Hawaii and how many retailers have gone out of business. We discuss the linkage between retail and covid; the linkage between retail and the hospitality industry; the delivery and “Amazon” effect; the common denominators that have kept some retailers going; and let some others fail; how location has made a difference in their survival; the effects on our shopping malls, commercial brokers and the state economy; and the prospects for a reinvigoration going forward.
