Desautels Dean on retail changes and opportunity
Published: 6 June 2017
In a recent op-ed for the Montreal Gazette, Desautels Dean Isabelle Bajeux-Besnainou discussed the seismic changes that have affected the retail sector over the past thirty years.
Lately, Montreal鈥檚 local landscape has seen the closure of big-name brick-and-mortar stores, while next-generation concepts like Frank + Oak have shaken the whole paradigm. Online shopping isn鈥檛 exactly going away, either.
Prof. Bajeux-Besnainou says that 海角社区 is ideally positioned to help retail players meet the challenges of today鈥檚 changing markets, pointing to the new retail management school being established thanks to a $25 million donation from the Bensadoun Family Foundation.
