I heard a lot of the grocery stores in Florida are not renewing the leases of the banks down there due to the danger of robbery. I am in a Southern state and the bank in our store (Fifth Third) got held up right before Christmas
Its possible, the only thought process for banks originally was to drive customer traffic inside stores. I know 5/3 exited stores in OH because of the lack of customer demand traffic years ago...
Banks are becoming less and less common in my Division. Most stores in my district replaced their banks to make room for Clicklist. New stores haven't opened with one in years
