No sooner had pandemic lockdowns become a thing of the past than supply chain snags, labor shortages, and price upticks piled on. The fact that all three dynamics are mutually reinforcing only adds to the angst. We’re heading for another unprecedented year-end and fortunately, retailers have a few arrows in their quivers. Carol outlines ways that Kroger, Dollar General, Amazon, Walmart, and other top retailers are mitigating the madness and reveals four trajectories that tie it all together.
You’ll learn:
· Why scarcity might upstage discounts this holiday shopping season
· How smaller retail players are poised to slay labor shortages
· Why higher pay and automation only scratch the surface
· Why retail solution and service providers should step up now
