In today's Omni Talk Retail Fast Five Podcast, sponsored by Microsoft, the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Takeoff, and Sezzle, Chris Walton and Anne Mezzenga:
- Took another victory lap on their long held position that Mark Tritton’s tenure at Bed Bath & Beyond would be short-lived.
- Highlighted the importance of Trigo’s second autonomous grocery store implementation with Rewe in Berlin, which places it squarely in the lead as the “non-Amazon” option in the battle for checkout-free grocery retailing.
- Lauded Amazon for rolling out a new analytics platform for CPGs that works off its own “Just Walk Out” technology.
- Praised Gap for doing something every retailer should do – i.e. invest in lab stores.
- And closed with a question about just how far up the leadership ladder Walmart’s FTC troubles over money transfers could go.
There’s all that, plus muscle biopsies, fake tanning on a budget, and Anne’s new favorite alcoholic beverage that can only be described as a “Hot Mezz.”
