Retail Focus 11/15/20 – Navigating Delivery Delays & Restrictions, Dillard’s Strategy Pays Off (For Now)

Our interview guest is Rick Watson, Founder & CEO of RMW Commerce Consulting; he joins us to discuss how retailers are attempting to navigate the muddy logistics waters of Q4 by dealing with surging costs, delays, and volume restrictions. In our news segment, we discuss how Dillard’s is reaping the rewards of a long-standing company policy and emerging profitable during the pandemic and how budget grocers could possibly (paradoxically) see waning sales as the pandemic progresses. We’re also joined by a surprise guest to discuss retail visits in Ohio and Pennsylvania.
