Walmart, Whatnot & WTF Is H-E-B Doing With Robots?

In this week’s Omni Talk Retail Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Simbe, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and ClearDemand, Chris and Anne discussed:

  • SpartanNash’s merger with C&S Wholesale Grocers (Source)
  • Whatnot, the $5 billion shopping app you probably haven’t heard of (Source)
  • Walmart equipping its store associates with mobile AI tools (Source)
  • H-E-B piloting autonomous deliveries in Austin, TX (Source)
  • Amazon testing tighter grocery bundling for same-day deliveries (Source)
  • And AWS’s Daniele Stroppa also dropped by to help us hand out a new award we are giving out each month in partnership with AWS, and we are calling it the Retail Startup of the Month

There’s all that, plus french fry pizza, steamy romance novels, and whether Chris prefers bar soap or body wash in the shower.
