The performance is exceptionally lively. First, the GAP scale will turn off the entity store. The focus will be on the electricity supplier. Nearly H&M's brand Cos and Other Stories will add new stores, and the NEW LOOK brand will come out. The actions of these fast fashion brands are really fascinating. So what will be the main theme of these fast fashion in 2015?

Theme 1: shop

Main theme two: electricity supplier

GAP will scale down entity stores will focus on electricity providers

According to the latest news from the US media,

The new CEO Art Peck says it is looking for a new way to re brand goals.

This involves Peck's 3 sales, upgrading the company's electricity supplier, mobile terminal and full channel retail capabilities.

This may mean closing the store.

Peck pointed out in the article that the 3680 global shops of Gap will inevitably "shrink" in size and quantity.

Art Peck, who comes from the digital department, now seems more interested in the electricity supplier. Making the closing of the physical store is also reasonable.

In addition, it is equally important to reduce the Gap product design to the store cycle, which is also the key to competition with other fast fashion products.

The current cycle is 10 months, three times that of Zara and H&M.

Peck hopes that the future will be reduced to about 30 weeks.

He is still trying some new ideas, such as updating the sample room, mobile phone registration mode, electronic wall display mode, clothing RFID identification technology, and possibly setting up Gap vending machine.

Gap is a popular fashion brand once popular around the world. When it was founded in San Francisco in 1969, there were only a handful of employees.

Now it has five brands (Gap, Banana Republic, Old Navy, Piperlime, Athleta) and many chain stores, and it entered China in October 2010.

Keywords six: open shop

MUJI (Muji): there will be a big new store opening in the Chinese market.

MUJI has always had a blind dependence on big stores.

In 1993, it opened the first 1190 square meter store in Japan. In 2001, the average noodle area of MUJI products reached 995.9 square meters. As long as the basic requirements were met, the brand would open more than 1000 square meters.

This led directly to its first loss in 2001. The following year, Tokue Junichi was the executive director of the good plan and was responsible for its development.

Today's Chinese market may enable Muji to achieve its previous unfulfilled pursuit.

At present, the number of MUJI (Muji) stores in China has risen from the first 1 to 128 at the end of 2014.

As far as the big shop is concerned, apart from the super flagship store in Chengdu, it is understood that the flagship store of MUJI Shanghai has indeed been put on the agenda and is being selected.

Perhaps soon, the legendary MUJI, the largest flagship store in the world, will land in Shanghai.

It is reported that in 2015, MUJI (Muji) set up 30 stores in China, and the 2016 fiscal year is expected to achieve 300 billion yen sales, of which Asia centered overseas market accounts for 1/3.
