The Special: Feed the Nation

No one has ever seen anything like this. An unprecedented crisis
demands unprecedented responses. In our first episode of ‘The
Special’ series, we explore how the Covid-19 outbreak is
affecting grocery retailers. What are some of the biggest issues
facing retailers right now, and how are they tackling them?


Host Martin Popplewell is joined by a series of guests, as we try
to make sense of the volatile, fast moving and hugely complex
situation that’s challenging major multiples, symbol group and
independent convenience retailers alike.


Featuring Luke Tugby, editor of Retail Week, Ronan Hegarty, news
editor of The Grocer, Greg Deacon, chief operating officer of
NFRN, Mike Exley, former Head of Logistics at Morrisons, and
Craig Summers, managing director of Manhattan Associates. We’re
also joined by Jean McCabe, chair of Retail Excellence Ireland to
discuss the impact of Covid-19 on Irish retailers.
