It could do 20-25 per cent more.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This expectation is based on the proximity of the Prince Charles outlet to major residential areas, an advantage the original Robin Hood store does not have.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The other store is more of a destination store,&#8221; Mr Schaefer told Tribune Business. &#8220;We have customers who come from out east, so we expect there to be 6-8 per cent cannibalisation of the existing store.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mr Schaefer revealed to the Tribune that Robin Hood is planning to brand the second floor gym at its planned 44,000 square foot shopping centre as a Magic Johnson Signature Club.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Schaefer responded to The Tribune&#8217;s question about opening before Christmas saying, &#8220;It just has to. It&#8217;s so important for us. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s reasonable for us to spend the money on continuing to get it done, because every week we lose, we lose hundreds of thousands of dollars in potential sales.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sales at the new Prince Charles Drive Robin Hood store are expected to exceed the original Summerwinds Plaza location by 20-25 per cent, when it opens before the end of this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"facebook_10223285771444175_51037792744":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3774","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3774","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3774"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3774\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3774"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3774"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3774"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
