Abercrombie & Fitch Is Ready to Abandon the Shopping Mall
Abercrombie & Fitch (NYSE: ANF) is looking pretty buff these days. While the teen retailer isn't about to return to the days where shirtless models stood around in its doorways to entice customers in, it is flexing the retail equivalent of a beach body as it reported some of its strongest holiday results in years.
Wearing that newfound confidence, Abercrombie is warning shopping mall landlords that it has no qualms about kicking them to the curb if it needs to. It seems to be a veiled threat that if it doesn't win concessions on rent it will happily walk away when its leases expire.
