Today, we are diving deep into Part 2 of a 3 part series where expert grocery ecommerce hosts, Sylvain Perrier and Mark Fairhurst, discuss the effects of grocery inflation on retailers and what is happening behind the scenes in terms of merchandising and operations.  

In Part 1: Grocery eCommerce: Post-pandemic insights and strategy, the hosts were joined by Zac Wilson, the Director of eCommerce at Raley's Supermarkets, where they discussed what has occurred coming out of the Pandemic, how Rayley’s responded, the early impacts of inflation and how it is effecting ecommerce, and how that has affected grocery delivery and pickup. 

In this episode, Sylvain and Mark are joined by John Lucot, retired President and Chief Operating Officer of Giant Eagle where the conversation centers around how can retailers respond to grocery inflation, how CPG expectations and consumer behaviors are changing due to inflation, whether or not inflation benefits grocery retailers, and how retailers should prepare to go from inflation to potential recession. The episode details strong advice for grocery retailers today that are dealing with the current market circumstances.
