Amazon’s Private Label Push, Shein Stores & The #1 Worst Idea In The History Of The Show | 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 launching a “price-conscious” grocery brand with most products under $5 (Source)
• PayPal tying 5% cash back to BNPL purchases (Source)
• Bed Bath & Beyond’s plans to launch a nationwide franchise system (Source)
• Shipt’s new chat to cart feature with Perplexity (Source)
• Shein making its first permanent move into physical retail (Source)

And this month’s OmniStar award, in partnership with Quorso, goes to Prabash Coswatte, Chief Operating Officer at Heritage Grocers, for the true omnichannel approach he’s bringing to running a grocery chain across four distinct banners!

There’s all that, plus why Chris calls Bed Bath’s franchise plan “the single dumbest idea in the history of this show,” whether Anne would eat Frank’s Red Hot gummy bears, and the surprising stat about BNPL usage for fresh grocery products.
