  15. @fscavo that's fair, NO also takes fresh look at biz model, how they buy, how they merch/assort, think as a brand, not as a distro pt 4 cpg
  16. @fscavo yes, AND W-M, drug stores, mass merchandisers, fast food, and "dollar" store formats + for similar if not same branded products
  17. @fscavo true except when they compete w/ other formats (sectors) for same $ spend, then "sector" needs relook at biz model & IT spend
  18. @fscavo yup razor thin margins... yet even in absolute terms grocers are behind other formats ... in UK margins are 2-3x of US counterpart
  19. @RodneyWms U2 was terrific, unparalleled venue, will be impossible to outdo the experience
  20. Are grocers IT spending in need of a bump? A regional banner spends 0.37% of revenue on IT... http://bit.ly/3UzNCS
