(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nPrada, Kering, and Hermès are closing smaller stores and concentrating investment in flagship locations as unrest in France forces closures, per Glossy.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): consolidate into flagships during downturns or disruption. A flagship in a power location (Paris Right Bank, New York Fifth, Tokyo Ginza) drives more margin per square foot and more earned media than five small boutiques. You control the narrative, the experience, and the scarcity of access. Use the flagships to test new product formats, community events, and service tiers. Small boutiques are for brands with abundant capital; flagships are for brands managing margins.\nWhat that means for you: consolidate into flagships during downturns or disruption.
