Supply chain resilience lies at the core of achieving both environmental and financial sustainability, according to Accenture. “A fundamental shift in the traditional approaches to sourcing, supported by data-led capabilities, will propel retailers toward a new era of responsible commerce,” Accenture Retail Lead ANZ Tom Priestly said.
 
Manhattan Associates Inc. has released the findings of a consumer research study, highlighting a strong preference among shoppers for meaningful in-store interactions. “The future of retail is not an either-or between online and in-person; it’s a sophisticated ecosystem that prioritises customer relationships at every touchpoint and empowers retail assistants to meet in-store customer requirements,” Manhattan Associates Managing Director Raghav Sibal said.
 
A holistic approach to sustainability throughout the supply chain allows businesses to create long-term value, waste less, and save more, according to RELEX Solutions. “With an effective
strategy in place, businesses can rest assured that their customers are getting the products they need while the company is also looking out for the health of our planet,” RELEX Solutions Head of Sustainability Svante Göthe said.
 
Also in this issue, we look at trends in point of sale and point of purchase, review the categories of Easter planning, confectionery, and deli and smallgoods, and explore the changing directions in shopper behaviour, market developments and opportunities for driving growth.

Newly appointed Food South Australia CEO Marni Cook spoke to Retail World in an exclusive interview covering the value, importance and uniqueness of the state’s food and beverage industry.
 
Rising crime affecting retail employees has prompted the Australian Retailers Association (ARA) to take proactive measures to safeguard these unsung heroes and prevent further escalation of this alarming trend across the country.
 
As we go deeper into a headwind of continued economic uncertainty and weakened consumer sentiment, NextGen Group says it’s time to start thinking differently about how suppliers go to market with their retail partners.
 
With the focus now shifting to pricing practices between supermarkets and consumer brands, an independent review has shed light on unauthorised deductions from supplier payments, exposing a longstanding source of tension between these two parties.

RETAIL WORLD SEPTEMBER ISSUE OUT NOW!

Retailers have welcomed the Reserve Bank of Australia’s decision this month to leave the cash rate target unchanged at 4.1 per cent. Holding interest rates for a third consecutive month brings relief to businesses and the retail industry, leading into the busy trading season.

In this issue, our contributors discuss the trading conditions and explore ways to remain competitive in this complex economic environment and industry.

Accenture says retailers must optimise every aspect of their operations to remain competitive and thrive during these challenging times, and those that proactively embrace change and invest in the right technologies will emerge as leaders.

Recent years have brought a strong push back to homegrown, homemade, locally sourced and locally produced goods, and South Australia’s Foodland supermarket chain has always believed in supporting, sourcing, nurturing and promoting produce grown and products manufactured in the state, according to CEO Franklin dos Santos.

Also in this issue, we look at trends in sales and marketing, review the categories of ice cream/chilled desserts and household cleaning, and explore the changing directions in shopper behaviour, market developments and opportunities for driving growth.

Retailers will be looking for opportunity in the transition to a deflationary environment, according to NextGen Group. How suppliers navigate this dynamic is going to be critical.
 
Major shifts are taking place across the industry as a result of the ‘AI revolution’. And while people remain core to the success of retail operations, Accenture says it is critical that retailers reset their talent strategies to give people power over technology.

RETAIL WORLD JULY ISSUE OUT NOW: Catering to the changing landscape

Metcash Group has reported strong growth across its food, hardware and liquor businesses in its FY23 full year results in the face of challenges associated with the rapid increase in interest rates and cost of living. The group’s focus on further improving the competitiveness of its independent retail networks, as well as the success of its strategic acquisitions, particularly Total Tools, have been key factors in the strong performance.

Woolworths is removing kids confectionery from checkouts across all its supermarkets. The move follows changes to checkouts introduced last year by the retailer, where it increased the range of “healthier” options, including wholegrain crackers and bars.

Woolworths Category Manager Karolina Trofiniak is the 2023 winner of the Joe Berry Australian Retail Industry Executive Award for her essay on ‘Optimising retailer pricing strategy’, presented in Sydney last month.

SunPork Chief Commercial Officer Rhys Collins spoke to Retail World about the company’s success as an Australian owned pork brand, discussing value, innovation, animal welfare and sustainability.

Costco Australia Managing Director Patrick Noone spoke to Retail World in an exclusive interview ahead of Costco’s warehouse opening in Coomera, Queensland about market conditions and the member warehouse company’s aims for the rest of the year.
 
In contrast to total retail, an accelerating sales growth trajectory is occurring for the $123 billion Australian grocery industry. According to Circana, grocery retail grew 5.1 per cent for the 52 weeks ending 21/5/23 versus the previous 52 weeks. In its mid-year report, Circana conveys the macro-economic landscape, the value of the grocery market, ALDI’s growth, private label sales momentum, and an outlook for the market. Circana also highlights the importance of understanding Australia’s new shopper values in the cost-of-living crisis.
 
Australians are looking to brands for help and support through this cost-of-living crisis, just as they did through the pandemic. Kantar says it’s all about balancing pricing power with consumer value.
 
In order to remain relevant among consumers today, retailers need to align their product offering with the customer’s purpose in a way that is authentic to the brand, according to Accenture.
 
Companies that thrive in recession see turbulence as an opportunity to shake things up by addressing new consumer needs in clever and creative ways. PLAY shares how to innovate in tough times.
 
Also in this issue, we look at manufacturing innovation. We also review the categories of hot beverages, dairy case and plant-based, along with the changing directions in shopper behaviour, market developments, and opportunities for driving growth.

The Australian Retailers Association (ARA) has noted a considerable decline in retail job vacancies, but warns the reduction is likely a result of the increasing cost of doing business and is merely a reflection on seasonal trading.
