TJX Companies’ same-store sales grew 6% in the second fiscal quarter, which was double the 3% growth in the second fiscal quarter of 2018. Higher consumer traffic in all of the company’s divisions boosted the top-line growth during the quarter. TJX Companies experienced higher consumer traffic for the 16th consecutive quarter.
