In today’s Omni Talk Retail Fast Five Video, sponsored by Microsoft, the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Takeoff, Sezzle, and Silk, Anne and Chris centered their sights on:
- Aldi’s apparent move away from Instacart by way of its new e-commerce platform partnership with Spryker
- Walmart offering short-term leases in its stores to small business via Popable
- Amazon extending Prime benefits to include 100 million songs from Amazon Music
- Abercrombie & Fitch giving frat guys everywhere the ability to pick up rugby sweaters at their nearest Walgreens
- And closed with a look at what the union troubles at the Starbucks/Amazon Go combo store in NYC signal for the future of a format that once held so much promise
There’s all that, plus Cozy Earth Apparel, Tay-Tay, and Anne’s favorite yacht rock song.
