Same Store Sales What does it Mean? A statistic used in retail industry analysis. It compares sales of stores that have been open for a year or more.

Investopedia Says...
This statistic allows investors to determine what portion of new sales has come from sales growth and what portion from the opening of new stores. This analysis is important because, although new stores are good, a saturation point--where future sales growth is determined by same store sales growth--eventually occurs.

Pode ser vendas comparáveis OU mesmas lojas...except mesmas lojas is literal from English..so I would use vendas comparáveis...

PLEASE SEE THIS DEFINITION OF SAME STORE SALES:
What are Same-Store Sales?

Definition: Same-Store Sales are sales dollars generated only by those stores that have been open more than a year and have historical data to compare this year\'s sales to the same time-frame last year.



*******Also Known As: Comp Store Sales, Comparable Store Sales, Like-Store Sales******

General Use: By measuring the sales increase or decrease in the stores that have a history (open a year or more) the industry can get a better feel for how it is really performing, because this measure -- Same-Store Sales -- takes store closings and chain expansions out of the mix.

please note: THE TERM IN ENGLISH IS WEIRD TOO. Unless you know the definition..,..same store sales is confusing....and it is the SAME AS comp sales..or comparable sales and in Portuguese, that is the term as my first PROOF shows. They use \'\'mesmas\" in quotation marks and then use the term comparaveis in the same sentence. This indicates that it is SYNONYMOUS and therefore CORRECT.

Henrique:

Here is your proof, as it were:
Vendas do McDonalds caem em fevereiro pelo 12º mês consecutivo

A rede de lanchonetes McDonalds Corp. anunciou queda de 4,7% em suas vendas apuradas ****por restaurantes em operação por pelo menos 13 meses (vendas comparáveis)*****, ante acréscimo de 0,4% em fevereiro do ano passado. Esse é o 12 mês consecutivo de queda na receita. Favorecida pela depreciação do dólar no mercado de câmbio, o total de vendas da rede aumentou 4% no mês passado, para US$ 3,1 bilhões, em relação a igual período do ano anterior. Excluíndo os critérios de correção monetária, as vendas caíram 1%. Somente nos EUA as vendas em lojas abertas a pelo menos um ano diminuíram 4,4%, enquanto na Europa recuaram 3,9%.

neutral  Henrique Serra: "vendas das lojas comparáveis" could be misleading because stores of different chains could be compared, which is not the case here; weird as it may sound, "conceito de mesmas lojas" is a known expression in Brazilian marketing.
46 mins
  -> wrong: in English and in the sites I give...the term is COMP STORES. You need to check the English for same store sales which is the same as comparable or comp store sales. Sorry Henrique...

disagree  airmailrpl: agree with Henrique Serra's point of view...still agree with Henrique..the research is in my suggestion.
8 hrs
  -> you both need more research...same store sales= comp sales in marketing lingo
