Wow - what a breath of fresh air Gonzalo Gebara was today at the RCC - In Conversation with Retail Leaders in Canada event. ....and maybe it's just me but don't you see a little bit of Joey from "Friends" in the image captured below?? 😁 In all seriousness - Gonzalo was so open, authentic and candid during the fireside chat today with Diane J. Brisebois and it was so very refreshing. I have so many notes from today's session - so sorry for the super long post: 🌟 Walmart's culture remains a top priority - they are a "people first" company and their purpose is and always will be to save consumers money 🌟 They are focused on 4 pillars: - PRICE - ASSORTMENT - TRUST - CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE. 🌟 Private label remains at about 20% of total sales which is on par in Canada - "It's important that we give Canadians a choice and customer behavior and buying habits will dictate what they see in stores". 🌟 Putting more time/focus on supporting small/local business in Canada. They want to be good citizens to offer the best value and assortment for Canadians. 🌟 Walmart will continue to invest in ecommerse - it is a growing segment and offers more choices for consumers 🌟 Walmart is highly focused on utilizing technology to enhance all areas of the business from supply chain to the customer experience 🌟 Regarding technology - it is important to offer choices to the consumers - they have been working hard on finding a balance between self service and full service check outs - it is a work in progress and the customer experience is always top of mind 🌟 With Gonzalo's personal experience being a newcomer to Canada - he is excited and celebrates the level of multiculturalism in Canada and is working towards accommodating these segments with product assortments in all categories 🌟 Walmart is focused on having strong relationships with all partners and doubling down on efforts to provide value to customers. 🌟 Customer experience is top of mind - they are working hard on ensuring the best possible personal experience for customers shopping in brick and mortar as well as offering convenience for those who prefer to shop online. 🌟 Sustainability - Walmart Canada is leading some other countries in this category with focus on waste management, energy management - they are testing e-vehicles for long haul trips and working collaboratively with partners to reduce packaging where possible. 🌟 Rising levels of theft - Walmart's priority is creating a safe environment for customers and staff and is working collaboratively to find appropriate solutions. 🌟 Walmart has/is investing millions to assist brands to sell products online via their Marketplace - ability to flow products across Canada in a timely manner. #retail #walmart #cpg #insights #firesidechat Walmart Canada Retail Council of Canada Field Agent Canada

Given the weight of the food sector, Intermarché will be the boss of the alliance, while Auchan will take charge of the non-food sector. 🤝 Long-term commitment: A ten-year partnership aimed at strengthening links with agricultural and industrial players while preserving food sovereignty. 🛍️ France's leading central purchasing group: A joint initiative to negotiate purchasing conditions for leading international brands of FMCG products, promoting the diversity and complementary nature of shop formats. 💼 Extension to international services: A similar scheme for negotiating and marketing services to multinationals, piloted by Intermarché. 🔄 Agreement extended to private labels: The suppliers’ listing center created in 2023 will be extended to Auchan Retail's private labels. 📅 Operational from autumn: The partnership will come into effect for the 2024/2025 negotiation campaign, limited exclusively to purchasing.   🤔 However, the 10-year timeframe that retailers have set themselves is questionable, as the current commercial big bang requires modesty when predicting the future, and therefore when planning for it. And you, what do you think of a 10-year alliance in retail?   👍 If you enjoy the news, don’t forget to ✨ 𝑳𝒊𝒌𝒆 & 𝑺𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒆 ✨ ➡️ For further articles, visit our website: https://lnkd.in/eUcpVQeq   #GreenSeedGroup #GreenSeedFrance #EnterFrenchRetail #InternationalFoodExpert #MarketingandSales #FoodMarket #FoodExpert #MarketNews #RetailPartnerships #BrandCollaboration

𝐋𝐞𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐜 𝐝𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐡 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭: 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐞, 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 In the P9 period (August), French independent supermarkets such as E.Leclerc, Les Mousquetaires (Intermarché and Netto), and Système U recorded market share gains, each increasing by half a point or more, according to data from Kantar. This performance was mainly due to inflation, with French consumer spending growing by 7.7% over the period. E.Leclerc maintained its leading position, increasing its market share by 1.1 points. By contrast, other chains experienced difficulties. Lidl and Aldi stagnated, while Auchan and Casino lost ground, with Casino Hyper Frais and Casino Supermarché down 0.5 points each. Carrefour also struggled, letting E.Leclerc pull ahead with a 4.5-point gap. Alexandre de Palmas' general management could potentially influence Carrefour's future results. All in all, the independents dominated the period, but challenges lie ahead for traditional supermarkets. #food #market #foodmarket #retail #retailer #retailers #supermarket #distributor #distributors #Leclerc #Carrefour #marketshare
