The future of food retailing for the next three to five years will be dramatically affected by two major trends: food inflation and the emergence of small format stores. Willard Bishop and The Food Institute's annual Future of Food Retailing webinar examined the state of the food and consumables retail industry in 2007 and beyond, including current & projected market shares, and real growth vs. inflation for traditional supermarkets, convenience and non-traditional retailers. Find out what the industry experts at Willard Bishop foresee happening over the next five years, in terms of the strategies that retailers are implementing and their impact on the supplier community. Find out:
