Walmart Global Tech’s Post

Day 2 of Shoptalk Europe was another fantastic day! Here are a few highlights: Bubble's Bonnie Szucs succeeded in pushing the boundaries of the concept of unified commerce, completely redefining shared understanding and challenging whether it actually exists. As is often the case, we have much to learn from disruptor brands. Ocado Group's Gregor Ulitzka stressed the importance of shopper data and insights. Do you genuinely understand your shoppers?! And if you do, how does this inform your strategy? bp's David Pitron made some bold predictions about how EVs are changing the use of forecourt facilities…and how it will change again when battery capacity improves. BP is a retailer thinking about the future in the face of seismic operational and commercial changes. Shoptalk's own Ben Miller and Rebecca Bemhena presented four factors that will reshape retail: AI, Next-Gen Customer Journeys, Brand Power, and Unlocking Unified Commerce. We just need to agree on what unified commerce is and whether it actually exists... Procter & Gamble's R Alexandra Keith shared a brilliant Head & Shoulders case study about reformulating products to attract new shoppers into the category - all based on customer data and directive insights. Mars Petcare Deri Watkins covered much ground and shared many thought-provoking comments, but most interesting was his mention of social commerce as an area the business recognises as a channel for growth and one it will be heavily investing more in. Waitrose & Partners' Laura Burbedge gave a refreshingly honest perspective on how quick commerce partnerships are primarily about introducing the brand to new shoppers and how this feeds the business's overall strategy for future shopper loyalty.

Our latest insights report is out now! In this Display Investigation, we explore how the UK’s leading supermarkets and retailers from other sectors harness P-O-P, asking: who shows value judgement? With the cost of living hitting the pockets of shoppers, value for money is more important than ever. As supermarkets vie to be seen as the best-value option, P-O-P messaging is key in their mission to promote offers, price locks and loyalty schemes.

From the anti "Make the logo bigger!" resistance movement. Brave or....?? Spotted this in Sainsbury over the weekend. I applaud trying to move away from the increasing sea of "shouting" that the instore environment at the moment seems be heading towards. But what do you think? In store data here at SI shows that "fins" can indeed impact positive category growth, but the mechanism isn't yet well understood. Nor what specific approach wins. Our new evaluation tool, from our partnership with Shopnosis, can predict POS effectiveness but being AI driven (trained on real life data), the underlying maths isn't transparent. #pos #shoppermarketing #categorymanagement
