Podcast:Omni Talk Retail Published On: Fri Feb 17 2023 Description: In this week’s Omni Talk Fast Five Podcast, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Firework, Trigo, Sezzle, and Silk, A&M’s Chad Lusk and Joanna Rangarajan stopped by and joined Chris and Anne to discuss: - The impact of Walmart shutting down three of its U.S. technology hubs and forcing its tech employees back into the office at least two times per week - UPS investing almost $150 million in #rfid. - Why in the world Lidl would want to sell less meat? - FIT:Match’s new lidar-equipped fitting rooms. - And whether Wegmans latest Shopic smart cart pilot will turn out any better than its failed scan-and-go implementation. There’s all that, plus grocery store dates, how best to get from Point A to Point B, and sodas that “move” us. P.S.
