Amazon Lets Rufus Out To Play, Macy’s Ends Its Talks & Walmart Exerts Media Dominance

In this week’s Omni Talk Retail Fast Five news roundup, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Ownit AI, Avalara, Mirakl, and Sezzle, A&M’s Mohit Mohal and Chris Disa, joined Chris and Anne to discuss:

  • Walmart’s wide lead in retail media (Source: Marketing Dive)
  • Macy’s ending its acquisition talks (Source: Retail Dive)
  • Hy-Vee rolling out ESLs with the VusionGroup (Source: Progressive Grocer)
  • And closed with a look at Petaluma, California’s new city-wide reusable cup pilot with Starbucks and many others (Source: Chain Store Age)
