people will buy more not less

all other shops shut

things ordered by post will come too late now

so argos and in-store general merchandise should do exceptionally well this coming week

On balance its neutral for Sainsburys.

More people will shop at Sainsburys (no other choice) but they will buy less as
less people coming for christmas.

The first problem with Ocado is that it is not very good at actually making money. It last turned a profit in 2016 and is forecast to increase its losses in 2021. If it can’t make money during conditions that are ideally suited to an online retailer, one has to wonder when it will. By contrast, traditional supermarkets such as J Sainsbury and Wm Morrison have still been able to make money this year, despite the extra costs associated with Covid-19. Tesco’s profits have risen.

What’s more, while the crisis has strongly boosted online shopping in the UK, this has only encouraged the large supermarkets to invest money and resources developing their online delivery arms, which benefit from the fact that they can select goods from their extensive network of supermarkets. As a result, despite its surge in sales, Ocado has lost market share in the online delivery sector this year.

Indeed logan. Thanks to the housing boom creating a huge divide between the haves and the have nots, its the oldies that generally have all the money. If businesses want the business, ignore the middle aged and up, isnt that smart.The younger generation will be up to their eyeballs in mortgage debt for 30,40,50 years.

As is well known,the discounters have been eroding away the market share of the big 4 supermarkets,the latter have had the opportunity though, throughout the years,of being able to pick the prime sites.No doubt this will act as a prop for them.

My understanding is as the 'baby boomers' are now long in the tooth that many businesses, especially those in consumer business are no longer really interested in them and their wants so are just sticking two fingers up at them.

Even people born between 1970 and 1999 many businesses are starting to lose interest in them and their wants.

Consumers businesses are concentrating more and more of their time and effort on the wants and needs people born after the year too as they say these are our future customers.

I feel this is very shorted sighted of these business to neglect more and more people who are over the age of 30.
