As the ghosts and goblins make their return this fall, welcome Spirit Halloween, the retail industry's all-time biggest pop-up operation, and 𝗧𝗥𝗥'𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗛𝗶𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸. Always ahead of time, it started opening more than 1,500 locations (a record) this week with some 50,000 employees. They will operate for about 90 days, and then get all packed up overnight until next year, same time... often in the same place at roadside and empty storefront locations. It's a remarkable achievement for privately held parent company, Spencer Spirit Holdings Inc., which operates over 600 year-round, namesake gift specialty stores in the U.S. and Canada offering hot-topic novelty gifts. In an era when most retailers struggle to open a few dozen stores a year, Spencer makes it look easy. It's a genius logistics trick...and a profitable treat for Spencer. #RetailNews #RetailMarketing #RetailInsight

The grand opening of TnT Supermarkets in the US was nothing short of spectacular! The excitement and massive crowds prove there's a huge appetite for high-quality Asian grocery experiences. With 7 more locations planned in the coming future, TnT supermarkets will attract huge traffics to their stores. This launch raises the bar for the entire sector, and I predict it will revolutionize Asian supermarkets in the US within the next 5 years. Here's why this matters for CPG brands: Cross-cultural appeal: As The New York Times reports, Asian supermarkets are attracting a growing , 30% non-Asian customer base. Changing demographics: With second-generation Asian Americans increasingly embracing aspects of Western culture, demand for products like yogurt, cereal, and other breakfast staples will continue to rise within this market segment. Inflation and evolving consumer habits: While inflation may be reducing overall grocery trips, consumers are still seeking value and quality. Expanding the pie: CPG brands, are you strategically positioned to be an "everywhere brand"? Now is the time to consider how your products can cater to the evolving needs and preferences of this dynamic consumer base. Chobani can definitely spend more efforts to reach out to this demographics. #TnTSupermarket #CPG #grocery #retail #AsianAmerican #consumertrends #marketing #brandstrategy #innovation #Chobani
T&T Supermarkets has officially opened its doors to the first U.S. location in Bellevue, Washington! This is the most monumental moment in T&T history. There were so many emotions going through my body but the biggest one is gratitude. Gratitude to the T&T fans who started lining up at 4:30 AM, to my T&T team, and to everyone who made this store come to life. This store in Bellevue has been YEARS in the making and it's finally here. This store is absolutely beautiful and I'm sure the people of Bellevue, along with all the T&T fans in the Greater Seattle Area will love it.

Monday Morning Store Walks ...were one of the best things Harris Teeter adopted when Rod Antolock came on board somewhere around 2000. Rod became a legend for helping stores execute exceptionally, keeping things simple, and having fun while doing it. Monday morning store walks included a rotating model store from each district. Every store leader from that district came to the model store that week. Each department was walked, key initiatives reviewed, well designed displays highlighted, best practices shared, challenges communicated and solved, technology and policy changes discussed. Since the model store rotated every week, every store got the chance to shine. And shine they did. Stores were polished, bathrooms were clean, out of stocks addressed, out of date items marked down, dairy rotated, produce culled, back rooms organized, clutter cleaned up. While technology does serve to make stores better operations, Monday morning store walks gave stores a chance to truly excel, to show everyone they could be the best. That pride in your work was invaluable. Customers benefitted, associates benefitted, and so did the bottom line.
