A fashion retailer in Galway city is planning to reopen its doors in the coming weeks to protest the “grossly unfair” situation of larger retailers allegedly breaking Covid-19 rules.
The owners of Lanidor - a ladies fashion brand - on Eyre St in Galway say they are sick of seeing larger retailers flouting public health guidelines and continuing to sell items of clothing, while smaller businesses are forced to stay shut.
We are struggling to get people, one McDonald s franchisee told Insider. I don t have enough, added the franchisee. Can t get enough. Wish I had enough.
The franchisee and others who spoke with Insider some of whom were granted anonymity because they were not authorized to speak about the topic said that chains are being forced to change practices due to a lack of workers. Some restaurants are shortening hours, while others are reluctant to reopen indoor dining. It s just craziness out there, said John Motta, a Dunkin franchisee who serves as chairman of the Coalition of Franchisee Association. People are closing early, people are not opening lobbies.

If each group had an income statement representing their interactions with Amazon, the numbers above would be the bottom lines from those income statements. These numbers are part of the reason why people work for us, why sellers sell through us, and why customers buy from us. We create value for them. And this value creation is not a zero-sum game. It is not just moving money from one pocket to another. Draw the box big around all of society, and you ll find that invention is the root of all real value creation. And value created is best thought of as a metric for innovation.
