The <br />downward trend was considerably less than 2014, and <br />sales the last 6 months of 2014 began to recover and show <br />positive gains. We expect that trend to continue as we <br />believe our customers will realize the benefit of shopping <br />our stores for competitive pricing, large selection, excellent <br />customer service and the fact that our profits stay in the <br />community. We are committed to our Mission and Vision <br />Statements! <br />Our staff is still adapting to the “new normal” of alcohol <br />beverage retail marketing in the metro area. We continue to research ways to increase our net <br />profits within our operation and the current retail market capacity in our area. I believe positive <br />relationships with our customers will provide long term customer loyalty, and our commitment <br />to reduce our cost of product and expenses will increase sales and profits. We will continue to <br />work hard to gain back the “customers through the doors” by providing a unique shopping <br />environment that is based on excellent customer service, product selection, competitive pricing <br />while providing safe, bright and clean stores that drive long term customer loyalty. <br />Thank you for your support in 2015 and beyond! <br /> <br />
