No one has ever seen anything like this. An unprecedented crisis demands unprecedented responses. In our first episode of ‘The Special’ series, we explore how the Covid-19 outbreak is affecting grocery retailers. What are some of the biggest issues facing retailers right now, and how are they tackling them?
Host Martin Popplewell is joined by a series of guests, as we try to make sense of the volatile, fast moving and hugely complex situation that’s challenging major multiples, symbol group and independent convenience retailers alike.
Featuring Luke Tugby, editor of Retail Week, Ronan Hegarty, news editor of The Grocer, Greg Deacon, chief operating officer of NFRN, Mike Exley, former Head of Logistics at Morrisons, and Craig Summers, managing director of Manhattan Associates. We’re also joined by Jean McCabe, chair of Retail Excellence Ireland to discuss the impact of Covid-19 on Irish retailers.
