Retailing To-do: | edit | history | watch | purge Here are some tasks you can do: Copyedit: Target Corporation, Wal-Mart - to be used as an examples for ideal page structure Cleanup: T.J. Maxx reads like advert; see talk page discussion Expand: Store manager, List of articles on project page, image gallery on project page, Hypermarket (history section), Category killer - This is very US/Canada centric - Ikea exists elsewhere, too. Stubs: Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market, Archer Farms, ClearRx Other: Department store - discriminate between itself and Discount store. Category killer - If a Category Killer dominates its area, why are there many stores listed per category? There should be clear criteria for when a store is included, otherwise this just becomes an advertising page.

[edit] Archer Farms/Fleming relation?

Laura Rowley's book On Target ISBN 0-471-66729-3 has an interesting comment about Fleming on p. 177: "...Target depends on wholesalers Supervalu and Fleming to distribute goods..." cited from the September 2, 2002 Forbes article Kitchen-Sink Retailing: Combine a discount store with a grocery store and what do you get? A disappointing profit margin, p. 78. Does anyone more familiar with the subject matter know if there is a relationship with Archer Farms and Fleming? 68.226.61.4 05:49, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 7-11

I found Archer Farms trail mix at a 7-11. Is Target now selling its products to other distributors, or is there a 7-11/Target connection? Katr67 18:58, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
