Our interview guest is Rod Sides, vice chairman of Deloitte LLP and their U.S. retail, wholesale, and distribution leader. He rejoins the podcast to discuss their yearly back-to-school and back-to-college surveys and how consumers are choosing where to spend and what to spend on. In news, in a follow-up from last week’s show, we touch on Tractor Supply Co.’s latest earnings, a proposed deal involving the Piggly Wiggly banner, and we look ahead to Ulta’s partnership with Target slated to launch in the coming days.
