of the period
.
8,500 shops
were opened in 2011, with a subsequent dramatic fall to almost 4,000 in 2012, followed by a noticeable fluctuation during the period
of the next 3 years before standing at 4,000 in 2015. After that, the trend of shop closures remained stable from 2015 to 2017, before hitting a final decline of 3000 shops
in 2018.
The number
of closed shops
started at nearly 6,500 shops
in 2011, after which it saw a mild fluctuation before ending the first half of the period
examined at 6,500, but later dropped remarkably to around 500 in 2015. After that free fall, it experienced a significant upward trend, reaching over 5,000, then
remaining steady before ending the period
