With brick and mortar establishments forced to close up shop due to an increase in online shopping, one retail giant remains tenacious and even changed their logo.

Best Buy introduced a new, streamlined logo in tandem with evolving business strategies. But will those changes keep the retail chain safe from the off-switch for a few more years?

The new design sports an easier-to-read white font against a blue background instead of the former black lettering within the shape of a yellow price tag.

What was the thought process behind the graphic change?

Best Buy staff writer John Vomhof Jr. described the upcoming growth initiative, including their expanding merchandise offerings and the evolving ways of selling them.

Some consumers were okay with the design.

Criticism about the new logo's familiarity began brewing.

Could this prognosticate the retailer's future?
