Five Things Friday UK Edition is your fast briefing on the retail stories worth paying attention to this week.
Alex Rezvan and Simone Oloman break down the developments affecting retailers, brands and the wider industry.
This week:
Frasers buys Harvey Nichols — what could happen to the luxury retailer, its regional stores and its relationship with Flannels?
Poundland and value retail — why competing on price alone may not be enough, and why customer experience and merchandising still matter.
90-minute retail delivery — Simone explains how Need It For Tonight works, its 90-minute and same-day delivery model and its new 12,000 sq ft operation at Westfield White City.
Stores as fulfilment centres — could retailers use local inventory and physical stores to get products to customers faster?
IKEA enters the resale opportunity — why IKEA bringing second-hand furniture into its own marketplace could be a smart move, and where delivery and collection may create friction.
Hosted by Alex Rezvan of The Retail Podcast and Simone Oloman, co-founder of Need It For Tonight.
