Super-sanitized Delaware hair salon serves grateful customers - WHYY

Image
Are you on the front lines of the coronavirus? Help us report on the pandemic. Department stores and other non-essential retail establishments in Delaware that have been closed for weeks were able to start offering curbside service Friday. Hair salons also were given the green light to open with strict guidelines. Only essential employees can get service, and no more than two at once. Rigorous sanitizing is required. But on Kirkwood Highway between Newark and Wilmington on Friday morning, it was clear that retail businesses hadn't jumped at the chance to serve customers at their doorway. The sprawling Kohl's remains closed. So are two GameStops, Pala Brothers Furniture, Sally Beauty Supply stores and several clothing boutiques. The vast parking lot for Kohl's on Kirkwood Highway remained empty as the store did not open Friday morning. (Cris Barrish/WHYY) Signs of life were visible, though, at Five Below in Millcreek, where manager Whitney Hausladen r

Great Clips has risen to the challenges of 2019, recently opening a new salon in Chester Township and providing its customers with as much comfort as possible, said owner Mark Wardeiner. "With COVID-19, we have had the increased challenge of having customers trust in us that we have gone beyond the recommendations for reducing the risk of COVID-19 exposure," Wardeiner said. "We clean the chairs and disinfect the stations between each customer. Each customer receives a freshly-washed cape, as well. This is all in addition to what the state cosmetology and barber board mandates." Great Clips, 12662 West Geauga Plaza, opened for business in October and is excited to be a part of the Chester community, Wardeiner said. "Chester Township has that rural feel with good family v

'Extreme Unboxing': How to Buy Return Pallets From Walmart, Target, Etc. - Distractify

Image
When asked how the coronavirus pandemic has impacted their business, Heather stated that online resellers who find items through thrifting instead of liquidator unboxing have been affected the most. Still, the couple has noticed a shift in what they're able to get rid of easily. "Anything that you can find that occupies people inside their home sells really well," Heather said in her YouTube video. "So things that people use when they're going on vacation, such as suitcases — we cannot sell a suitcase to save our life right now because nobody's going anywhere." They've also received an abundance of seasonal items that were "shelf-pulls," meaning the product is no longer being sold in stores. "COVID-19 hit around the time Easter happened, so Easter returns are really, really big," Heather revealed. "We had a liquidator contact us and [say], 'Listen, if you'll just pay for the shipping, I will ship you an en

New industry in town: Pallet selling, liquidation on the rise in North Central West Virginia - WV News

Image
CLARKSBURG, W.Va. (WV News) — Pallet selling and liquidation, a popular business practice in surrounding states, is gaining popularity in the Mountain State, with a handful of businesses operating in North Central West Virginia. Haddix Liquidations, located in Nutter Fort, has been operating for the past eight months and has seen plenty of success, according to owner Samantha Haddix. Before she and husband Jason Haddix officially began their business, Samantha said she started out buying pallets, breaking them down and auctioning off items in her living room. "I'd do like a live Facebook auction, so we did that for a while, and we were pretty successful with it. I realized I made money. It started strictly as a hobby. I'm a nurse, and I wasn't looking to do anything different. And my husband works full time. We were driving to Ohio to buy the pallets. That's when we realized there was nothing like that in the area, so as far as people

Walmart Seen as Finding Its Stride in Apparel - WWD

Walmart appears to be finding its groove in its apparel and merchandise offerings, as it builds large private label brands and plans for more e-commerce growth in the coming years, competing with the likes of Target and Amazon.   The retailer's promotion this month of Denise Incandela to executive vice president of apparel and private brands at Walmart Inc. marks a significant moment in the evolution of its apparel offerings, observers said.  Incandela, who has helped steer Walmart's apparel evolution in recent years and brings longtime fashion industry experience to the role, will oversee not just apparel, but also private brands for general merchandising in all categories, the retailer has said.  Through a combination of acquisitions, high-profile collaborations and its own creative push, Walmart has in recent years built up a roster of private label brands and elevated lines, including Time and Tru, Eloquii Elements, Jeans by Sofia Vergara and the Fre

Walmart seeks rise in online selling - Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

Walmart Inc. has made a couple of moves this week to grow its online marketplace business, which company executives said recently is one of their goals for the year. The Bentonville-based retailer's new partnership with e-commerce firm BigCommerce will let more merchants sell their wares on Walmart.com, BigCommerce said in a news release Thursday. In addition, Walmart said in a news release Wednesday that it has started a program aimed at drawing new sellers to Walmart Marketplace. The limited-time offer called New-Seller Savings gives a 30-day waiver on sales commissions to merchants who join the platform by March 31 and go live by May 1. Jeff Clemenz, senior vice president of Walmart Marketplace, noting that the third-party platform was a driver in Walmart's e-commerce sales growth of 79% last year, said this seemed like the time "to invite more sellers to come join us."
