Kroger’s Automation Reset, Starbucks & Why There Ain’t No Party Like A Walgreens Party | Fast Five

Retail Fast Five

In this week’s Omni Talk Retail Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and Quorso, Chris and Anne discussed:

• Kroger’s evaluation of its automated e-commerce fulfillment network (Source)
• Walgreens dedicating in-store space to party supplies and expanding assortment (Source)
• Starbucks deploying computer vision technology to track in-store inventory (Source)
• Pacsun announcing the formation of an industry-first youth advisory council (Source)
• Nearly half of AI search users preferring AI tools over Google (Source)

There’s all that, plus croissants versus pain au chocolat, escargot versus languostines, and whether the Paris Metro beats the London Tube.
