Re: Millennials Don"t Like These Brands, So They Are Disappearing!

Harley Davidson has been having financial issues for years.  I wouldn't be surprised to see them go.

I'm generally surprised to hear that they like anything except being self-absorbed and all about them! Oh but then, there are avocados....

@Jacie  How rude. Maybe the ones in your family, but not the ones in mine. Speak for yourself.

@proudlyfromNJ I am speaking for myself, that is what we do on the boards. I don't have millenials. Someone had to raise them, just where do you think they got their ideas? Ahhh, parents.

Removed.  Thanks.

 

Studies show there is percentage of Millennials who shop more like Boomers.  

 

Never could find out if they are the older ones.  Studies also show younger buyers become more traditional in all generations as they age.

I wouldn't miss any of these.  Happy to try new things.  The only establishment in the list that I visit regularly is Walgreens.  But I go to Walgreens because the people at CVS wouldn't take the discount coupons for my prescription medicine and Walgreens would, and the only reason I was going to CVS is that they bought up the drugstore that I used to go to.  I adapt.  There will always be something else.  I buy some of the other things on your list (Starbucks for example), but I will happily try something else.


 

So it turns out I will miss the QVC Forums...

I merely posted here the results of a retail analyst's research; however, there have been others reporting the same thing.  


He meant millennials were hurting their sales because they weren't buying much and if decreased sales continued along with boomers dying from old age, these stores and brands may not exist in the future.
