A lot of retailers are adapting but are finding it harder and harder to compete with Internet purchases. As in consumers will buy based on price instead of quality so will pay 5 bucks for an item that would cost 30 in a shop. If it lasts, it lasts. If not they will buy another and still be saving.
It does mean tho that a lot of hard working craftsmen in nz have been put out of business tho. Seen it all happen in the last company I worked for.
