The We May Not Be Ready For It New Normal Of Layoffs, RFID & AI Glasses | Fast Five

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

  • Amazon and Target’s major layoffs affecting thousands of corporate employees (Source)
  • DoorDash launching an Emergency Food Response program for SNAP recipients (Source)
  • Walmart and Avery Dennison partnering to track fresh food with breakthrough RFID technology (Source)
  • Lululemon venturing into its first licensing deal with the NFL (Source)
  • Amazon unveiling smart glasses for its delivery drivers (Source)

And AWS’s Daniele Stroppa also dropped by to help us hand out this month’s Retail Tech Startup of the Month award.

There’s all that, plus Stranger Things movie theater premieres, Target’s weirdly hot Santa returning for year two, and whether Red Bull really gives you wings.
