After a more-than-year-and-a-half review by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), Tractor Supply (NASDAQ: TSCO) has closed its acquisition of fellow rural retailer Orscheln Farm and Home. A key driver of this growth was comparable store sales (a blend of foot traffic and average shopper ticket size), which was up 5.5%. Suffice to say it sounds like Tractor Supply is holding up well in this inflationary environment, even as many households are tightening up their spending on non-essential home goods.
