in real-time to avoid delays. In
addition, Macy's has experienced
a lot of growth through acquisition,
so very few stores are alike. We
often had to customize our design
and construction plans for the site
– with no-one-size-fts-all solution.
Our partnership with Jones Lang
LaSalle's Multi-Site team brought
their expertise in large scale, short timeline projects, helping us navigate common pitfalls and
successfully meet our goals.
What does 2014 look like?
It's going to be another busy year as we progress with the second phase of our Macy's
rollout plan, which is just as aggressive as 2013. In addition, we will continue to further
improve our existing full line stores and refne Finish Line's premium omni-channel experi-
ence for the customer.
What opportunities do you see out there?
We are pleased with the overall results of our Macy's partnership and will continue to make
adjustments as we aspire to deliver all that the Macy's customer is seeking from the Finish
Line experience. Additionally, we will continue to improve the merchandise stories we tell in
these shops and present the product in an appropriate manner for showcasing industry-lead-
ing brands and products.
What's your growth plan?
On the Finish Line front, we currently have more than 650 stores in our portfolio. As we
continue to cultivate that banner, we will open 25 new stores in our fscal year ending in
February. As we look forward in the upcoming year, we will continue to be opportunistic with
our new store program. Macy's continues to be an important initiative as we open another
200-plus Finish Line branded shops over the next year.
