The women's designer department hasn't been met with these challenges, is profitable and continuing to grow but is wary of the threat of increased competition. The store's management is trying to be proactive and become more careful in their merchandise planning, control, and purchasing. The buyer is planning to use a six-month merchandise plan to determine the departments sales and merchandise needs in light of this.
