The retail world we knew before COVID-19 doesn't exist anymore. The entire landscape has changed, as has consumer behaviour. The mall of the future will require a whole new level of strategy, planning, innovation and operational adjustment. In this episode, John Stackhouse discusses how the world of retail has shifted dramatically, how consumer trends will continue to evolve in a post COVID world, and how retailers need to pivot to a “mission shopper” mindset.
Retail is a massive originator of data, generating 40 terabytes per hour globally.

Jose Ribau, Executive Vice President, Digital & Innovation at Cadillac Fairview, and four guests join John Stackhouse on RBC Disruptors to explore the future of retail and how malls can compete in a post-pandemic environment.
