Description

GLP-1 reshaping center store. In-store media becoming the third leg. Agentic commerce hitting a reality wall. Private brand opportunity widening but execution lagging. Shelf intelligence moving from edge to table stakes. Five major themes. More interviews than I can count. These were my lessons learned from FMI Midwinter 2026.

Hosted by Chris Walton, former Target executive and co-host of the Omnii Talk Retail Fast Five Podcast. New episodes of Walton's Weekly Wramblings drop every Friday.
