Over the past fourteen years, SOGO has maintained annual double-digit growth in sales, but 2001 saw only a 2 % rise. Even if you do not include the NT $ 400 million in losses resulting from the flooding following Typhoon Nari, the growth rate was only 5 %.
過去十四年間，SOGO 每年的業績成長率總在兩位數以上，二○○一年卻破天荒只有百分之二，即使納莉颱風淹水所損失的四億元不計入，成長率也只有百分之五。
