Blair Corp. plans to stop publishing its Crossing Pointe catalog early next year. The recent elimination of unprofitable circular mailings and reduced circulation for the catalog resulted in a decrease in sales for Blair during the second quarter.
Warren, PA-based Blair reported second-quarter net sales of $127 million, compared with $154.3 million for the same quarter in 2003. Net income for the quarter totaled $5 million, up from $4.1 million for the same period last year.
Blair posted gross e-commerce sales of $45.6 million for the first six months of this year, compared to $41.7 million for the first half of 2003.
