Why Walmart is seeing a rise in sales for tops, but not bottoms during the coronavirus crisis
That’s what Walmart’s executive vice president of corporate affairs Dan Bartlett told Yahoo Finance on Thursday. Later, a spokesman for the company told CNN the same thing.
But there’s that matter of video conferencing where you still want to present a presentable self to your colleagues. And so, many of us are donning business attire on top and casual clothing from the waist down.
“These behaviors are going to continue to change and evolve as people get accustomed to this new lifestyle, if you will.”
Asked about the comment, a spokesman for world’s largest brick-and-mortar retailer confirmed the executive’s assertion.
The data, however, is taken from US sales, the spokesman told CNN.
Home entertainment items such as DVDs and popsicle sticks (presumably for crafting) have also seen sales gains, Bartlett told Yahoo Finance.
