In an interview on CNBC, Allen Questrom ex-CEO of JC Penney, Macy's, Neiman Marcus and Barneys described sales and discounts as a "cancer for department stores". Specialists like Uniqlo and Zara maintain traffic without constant sales. Furthermore, department stores should leverage their brick-and-mortar assets.
