Today’s Retail Daily Minute Mon, 20 Apr 2026

Hello Omni Talk Fans!  I am currently flying over the Atlantic to attend two weeks of European retail conferences.

First, it is off to London for the Retail Technology Show and then, second, I am headed to Berlin for the World Retail Congress. Thanks to both conferences and to Vusion for making my coverage possible, and stay tuned all week long as I interview some of the real movers and shakers in our industry, including Marks & Spencer Board Chairman Archie Norman.

I can't wait for that one!

In today’s Retail Daily Minute:

  • Walmart expands its Better Care Services platform with five new virtual care and nutrition partners, positioning itself to own the full GLP-1 customer journey, across its nearly 4,600-pharmacy footprint.
  • Aldi pilots a new globally unified, modularly adaptable store format in the U.S., the culmination of a 14-year collaboration with Landini Associates, timed to support one of the most aggressive retail expansion runs in the grocer's history.
  • Uber Eats launches in-app courier-assisted returns, targeting one of retail's most persistent pain points.

Plus, a quote, inspired by the Aldi headline, from one of the partners at Bendini Lambert and Locke.
