- “Christmas really takes over supermarkets, doesn't it? From the moment you walk in, the aisles are transformed into a wonderland, or we say winter wonderlands. The ambiance, the festive decorations, the sense of vendors having tastings of their different products to impulse you to buy and push those revenues up during the Christmas season.”
- “It's the biggest revenues that any retailer or supermarket or whatever reach you are in expect from the Christmas season. You know, when you're going to supermarkets, there's organized chaos. Some people just love that last-minute chaos of being in the rush.”
- “Going forward into the future, I think there should be a strategic plan in terms of what first muscle, any particular period that you generate high sales, you're going to have to manage that and execute the plan the way you need to do it. Because at the end of the day, if we don't plan, then we're just playing along.”
