Fast Five | Nike Does Boutique Fitness, Wawa Goes Shelfless & Amazon Debuts Just Walk Out Apparel
In this week’s Omni Talk Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Firework, SPS Commerce, and Sezzle, Chris and Anne:
- Politely disagreed on whether Nike should be getting into the boutique gym business
- Tried to understand all the angles and reasons why Wawa would pilot a shelfless store in Philly
- Threw tremendous shade at JD Sports for piloting in-store AR mirrors
- Put themselves in the mind of a local florist (as they have always wanted to do) and asked, “Why in the world would we ever want to help deliver Amazon packages through Amazon Hub?”
- And closed with unbridled enthusiasm over Amazon bringing its Just Walk Out technology into apparel this week
A&M's Chad Lusk even stopped by to give us 5 Insightful Minutes on in-store grocery technology. To access the In-Store Technology: Customer-Facing Retail Tech Report — Grocery Edition head here:
