Dress Barn Inc, a leading national specialty apparel retailer offering quality career and casual fashion apparel through its dressbarn and maurices brands, has reported March sales results.
Total sales for the five-week fiscal period ended April 1st 2006 increased 5 percent to $125.3 million compared to $119.8 million reported for the comparable five-weeks ended April 2nd 2005.
Same-store sales increased 2 percent for the fiscal month of March.
It should be noted that this year the company's March sales reporting calendar does not include the week of Easter, which was included in March last year and will be reported in April this year. As a result of the Easter holiday shift, March and April sales should be combined for a more meaningful comparison.
