🛒 Blinkit is gaining marketshare from ecom The rise of the quick commerce major has not come at the expense of kiranas or large-format value stores like DMart but rather at the cost of e-commerce players and modern retail stores catering to premium customers. This commentary is significant as it comes at a time when multiple retail associations have raised concerns about quick commerce businesses eating away the market share of small shop owners. Zepto & Swiggy Instamart are Blinkit’s direct rivals. In the next few weeks, Flipkart is expected to launch a q-commerce service.

As Uber works to transition Drizly customers and merchants over to the Eats platform by the end of March, it poses an interesting decision point for urban independent liquor stores. They can tap into Uber's last-mile logistics to expand their customer radius while selling large commodity brands or try to tailor their offerings to local tastes and brands. This week on HNGRY Trends, I look at the key pieces in this transition as well as the case study of Washington DC-based Housebar, an omnichannel liquor store offering a highly curated selection of beer, wine, spirits, and food to match. While suburban liquor retail is dominated by grocery stores and big formats like Total Wine & More that have solved curation with a vast selection, smaller urban footprint stores on Drizly don't have that luxury. The startup is one potential solution to the commoditized urban liquor store format that has morphed into glorified "microfulfillment centers." Check out the full story below 👇 https://lnkd.in/dWACYCRn #liquorindustry #alcoholindustry #delivery #lastmile #lastmiledelivery #omnichannelretail #omnichannel #liquorstore #retail #retailexperience

"Data from Schnuck Markets, Inc. shows that Caper Carts have handled more than 10% of sales on busy days at a store where only 10 Caper Carts were deployed along with around 160 traditional carts. Schnucks shoppers who use smart carts tend to buy more items than people who don’t use the carts," Fidji Simo, CEO of Instacart, on our partnership with Schnucks.

Hey guys just wanted to give a bit of insight into the retail industry and some recent strides that are being made. That's why I got to call out our beloved DoorDash who just stepped up its game by expanding Ulta Beauty’s presence on its app, making on-demand delivery available from over 1,350 stores in ALL 50 states! This move is a big deal for the retail industry, showing how delivery services can go beyond just food into new areas like beauty. By teaming up with a major beauty retailer like Ulta, DoorDash is setting a new standard for convenience and speed in shopping. This isn’t just about getting products fast—it’s about transforming the entire retail experience. Now, you can have beauty products delivered to your door in under an hour, which changes the way we think about shopping. It’s no longer just about browsing in-store or waiting for online orders; it’s about immediate access to what you need. This partnership also highlights the growing trend of integrating diverse retail categories into on-demand platforms, challenging traditional retail models and pushing other retailers to innovate and meet rising consumer expectations. DoorDash’s expansion into beauty, along with its other recent partnerships with companies like Lowe’s and JD Sports, shows its commitment to broadening its marketplace and enhancing customer convenience.

The convenience of online #grocery shopping has taken a leap with in-home delivery services like Walmart’s, which ensures groceries are delivered straight to customers' kitchens. While this level of service transforms the shopping experience, it also highlights a critical issue: even the most convenient service is pointless if the items aren’t available. In recent years, dark stores have gained popularity as a solution to this problem. These dedicated fulfillment centers operate behind the scenes, ensuring that online orders are processed quickly and efficiently without the interference of in-store shoppers. To truly benefit from the dark store model, grocery retailers must implement advanced inventory management and forecasting solutions, allowing them to more accurately predict demand, prevent stock-outs, and ensure that customers receive the items they need. Can your inventory keep up with the surge in online orders? Click the link below to read our latest blog about how dark stores can enhance your online grocery operations and keep your customers happy. 🔗 https://hubs.li/Q02zK3cf0 #blog #retail #onlineshopping #customerexperience #inventorymanagement

Help retailers/brands understand emerging tech impacting physical space, including AR/metaverse, payment tech | RETHINK Retail Top Retail Expert | RTIH Retail Influencer | Writing book on 3rd place w/Sydney Polinchock
Had a chance to try the new Caper Smart Shopping Cart at my local ShopRite Supermarkets (Showcase Page) in Bloomfield. Overall, I enjoyed it and thought it worked pretty smoothly. I liked that the cart itself is a scale, making it pretty easy to add produce, which I thought would be a barrier. Right now, the only real barrier was the actual checkout process, since it is being done by an employee right now. I suspect that will change as it's in use more. Since it's made by Instacart, it seems you can also sync shopping lists, which again I think will become more useful in the near future. Has anyone else tried them? Thoughts? #retailtech #futureofretail

Fresh Report: Digital retail to 3x in-store growth over 5 yrs. Here’s how you can position: 1. Compete hard in Third Party Delivery. (Instacart owns this space, but DoorDash is coming.) 2. Optimize for First Party Click-and-Collect. (Retailer websites are used for curbside and in-store pickup.) 3. Leverage Shoppable Marketing Tools while the real estate is cheap. (Instacart, Walmart, and others offer shoppable billboards.) 4. Use Retail Media data to compel retail buyers. (We’ll move ‘x’ units per week with ‘y’ dollars using ‘z’ platforms.) Yes, digital retail can be used to ‘sell’. But the bigger opportunity is in retail velocity. Smart brands use digital to: -Turn product -Stay on the shelf -Compel buyers Ready or not, digital is coming. Quickly. ——— 🔹Driving shelf turn in Kroger, Whole Foods, Albertsons, Costco, Walmart, Sprouts, and More 🔹DM me or book an appointment for help. #ecommerce #retailmedia #retailgrowth #retailvelocity #cpg #cpgbrands #instacart #tradespend #retailbuyers #categoryreview

Sr. Vice President | Sales Leadership | eCommerce | Revenue Generator | Consumer & Shopper Insights | Strategic Planning | Private Equity
💵 The topic of pricing and trying to execute a common MSRP across various distribution channels, came up today in a share group I was attending. Part of the discussion made the point that consumers are getting so used to seeing different prices for the same items, thanks to the diverse ways they can make a purchase from retail stores, DTC sites, Instacart, Doordash and of course Amazon. 📰 That reminded me of this article from earlier in the week, where Atlantic writer, Christopher Beam, describes the emergence of "revenue growth management" putting us in pricing Hell. Examples used of surge and custom pricing, with Airlines, Hotels, Uber, and even Wendy's debacle of an announcement a couple of weeks ago. And eventually more customized pricing based on analysis of personal data on shopping behavior to determine a willingness to pay. 💱 The debating positions of economists are also interesting where some believe more personalized pricing can benefit those more financially challenged with less willingness and ability to pay, but somehow often these practices most benefit those in the best financial position. Which, of course, has raised concerns of the FTC and Congress, and has created the potential for future legislation. 📈 While price movement based on supply and demand is one of the most basic tenants taught in Econ101, and in todays retail environment consumers are used price variation by size, channel, delivery method and level of convenience, this next level of personalized pricing seems harder to reconcile. 💡 Curious on the thoughts of my network?
