Our quarterly reviews and projections of retail sales and trends include charts, graphs and synopsis. Q4 2011 updates, with year end projections and a look ahead at 2012, are now available (dated 28 November 2011).
 

• Hardlines: Where the Canadian Retail Economy is Headed

This is a presentation given at the Hardlines 2011 conference. While the focus is on hardlines, there's also a look at overall retail sales trends, competitive developments, and strategic implications, applicable to all retailers and their suppliers.
 

• Shopping Around and Retail Competition

Consumers do shop more than one store for the same thing, but it varies greatly by product line. Here are results from MMRR 2011 on how much shopping around is going on across 33 categories, and what it might mean for retail competition. Things are not always what they seem.
 

• Print Versus E-Flyers

MMRR 2011 shows that 85% of consumers use retail advertising flyers (a.k.a. inserts, preprints, FSIs). Many retailers also put up an e-flyer on their websites. Here are some hard numbers on how the two work together. But you can't call the 'e' version a "preprint" or an "insert" anymore.
 

• Comparing Retail in the U.S. Versus Canada

This is our classic analysis of retail industry similarities and differences between the two countries. And it's not just about the exchange rate.
 

• There Must Be 50 Ways to Improve Your Retail Preprints

You might call them preprints, inserts, flyers, circulars, or FSIs. But whatever you call them, they are a big business, and vitally important to retailers and to many others. This is a special report in celebration of our 25th year in business. While mostly aimed at retailers, it's also useful for printers, designers, vendors, and distributors. See the 100-item table of contents at There Must Be 50 Ways to Improve Your Retail Preprints.
