Covid-19 turned the world on its head. We're defining new norms and what once made sense, is up for individual assumption and acceptance. Especially throughout the United States. The Real Estate market had an astronomical increase rate over the last two years with no signs of correction, pet shelters' inventory is at an all-time low (YAY!) and auto-lots are practically begging people to trade-in their vehicles; almost making non-classic cars an appreciating asset. Analysts are on a non-stop statistical hunt with our consumption and spending.
What about shopping trends within retail?

Behind the scenes
The masks are coming off and America is opening up. The newest CDC regulations have sparked a new wave of interactions, and people are beginning to step back into the social light. And, they're bringing pre-Covid practices with them.

Consumers, with the change in routine and habits are making different choices than they were even eight months ago. There has been a definite shift where money is being spent and this requires grocery retailers to act and change up stores in response to that shift. I recently attended a Supermarket News industry webinar that highlighted some of those changes. Some were surprising, others were not. Here’s a broad sweep list:

We all experience management on many different levels. Many agree good management begins with communication. What we do not always realize is communication is a very broad term which stretches far beyond person to person. Especially in a technologically advanced world, communication is available on so many different platforms. At TNG Retail Services, we combine technology and communication every day to make our services and our clients’ management capabilities the best.

Customer-obsessed companies are using their data in ever smarter ways. Today, technology systems are a great resource, allowing for smarter decisions being made at retail. Those systems are providing more and more sophisticated analytics to be able to slice and dice the information for those decisions. John Tavolieri, President of U.S. FMCG and Retail and Chief Technology and Operations Officer at Nielsen states... “Now more than ever, speed of data is imperative. Earlier data delivery leads to faster, data-driven actions. For all companies navigating the current dynamic business environment, every day counts.”1.

You’re wanting a new front-end look and are designing your checkout. When does it make sense to bring in a supplier to help?
Recently, a large retailer, based upon what they were hearing in the marketplace and on the advice of some interested parties, decided to change up their front-end checkout units. The result was an aesthetic look that didn’t quite turn out like they had hoped in terms of ensuring the space was productive.
