SMH: Uniqlo’s fashion flies off shelves, but store openings bite

Uniqlo Australia saw a 35% sales revenue increase to $570.2M despite a 1% profit dip due to rising wages and costs. With nearly 10 new stores, including in South Australia, the brand continues expanding its footprint. RetailOasis strategist Emma Easton noted Uniqlo's mass appeal and focus on cost control to maintain quality and value. The retailer remains committed to growth despite market challenges.
