Overall, it is noticeable that both the number of closing and opening shops witnessed a downward trend. Additionally, closings surpassed openings in all years except for 2011 and 2015.

In 2011, there were approximately 8,500 shops opened in that country, significantly higher than the 6,300 stores which were closed. After one year, opening shops dropped to a low of 4000, then partly recovered to 6,000 stores. From 2014, this figure decreased again to its 2012 level and remained the same for three years until 2018 it hit its lowest point at 3,000

The number of shops that closed from 2011 to 2014 fluctuated between 6,200 and 6,400 stores. This figure fell sharply to 500 stores in 2015, then rose dramatically to 5,100 stores one year later, and stayed at this level until 2018.
