Then along Inglewood Ave, just before arriving at the 405 Freeway, I see the same billboard, placed there by Target. promoting a remodeled store in Manhattan Beach.
No doubt, the franchise is promoting this store in a high-income area along major thoroughfares and freeways. They don't want this store to sink into closure.
But is it having a hard time raking in the revenue?
Lots of Target stores are remodeling.
The overhaul in Orange is part of a $7 billion turnaround
plan announced by Target earlier this year to attract shoppers whisked away by
the convenience of Amazon and the extreme discounts of Walmart. By 2020, Target
plans to remodel 1,000 stores for shoppers looking for trendy but
value-oriented merchandise.
Of course, there's no mention of why the sales have plummeted over the last two years.
How about the fact that they Target stores thought it was a good idea to allow men to use women's fitting rooms and bathrooms because they wanted to go all in for "inclusivity", including their embrace of transgenderism as some kind of civil right, instead of recognizing it as a mental disorder.
The Target stock have not improved that much since this remodeling took place:
The stock was hovering near $77 a share, and now it's cracking $60.
There's no longer any talk about welcoming men who think that they are women to go into the Target stores.
But is all this "remodeling" talk really about scaling down?
Retail giant Target has been struggling for well over a year
since its decision to allow transgender men to use bathrooms and changing rooms
designated for women. Now, the chain is closing a dozen stores as part of an
effort to retool its stores in smaller spaces.
The press seems more intent on showing that the stores are doing well, and the Christmas Season has emerged with the Target stores doing better.
But do they still follow their transgender policy? The Target Store in Hawthorne had told me that they do not comply with that policy. The store on Sepulveda Blvd told another customer that they will not allow biological men to use women's restrooms or fitting rooms, either.
OK ... but has this transgender policy been officially reversed by the corporate leaders in Minnesota?
The fact that the company has still maintained its SJW stance is part of the reason why people are not shopping there anymore.
It may also explain why Manhattan Beach and many other "troubled" Target stores are remodeling all over the country. This is their last chance, and if they can't get the sales up, then we can expect their aggressive, offensive push into transgenderism virtue-signaling to fail big time.
