Bebe Stores is an American Microcap specialized in the licensing of fashion apparel and home accessories. Since 2020 is operating, as a franchisee, 64 Buddy's Home Furnishings stores, which has led the company to struggle in the last three years due to the poor performance of the Rent-to-Own sector. Macroeconomic prospects could significantly influence the sector's recovery, returning a stable and recession-proof business model to its historical profitability average.
