Waukesha, Wisconsin — August 2, 2021 — HRG’s Dave Wendland, vice president strategic relations at HRG and member of the owner group, along with Patrick Spear, president & CEO of GMDC|Retail Tomorrow, will be discussing the resilience of brick-and-mortar retail as the country moves into the post-pandemic era, during the upcoming GMDC|Retail Tomorrow Infocast, “Return to Brick-and-Mortar,” with speaker Andrew McQuilkin, partner at BHDP, on August 5th at 12:00 p.m. CST.
BHDP conducted its most recent consumer surveys and retail roundtable discussions with the goal of getting a pulse on changing consumer behaviors and how brick-and-mortar retailers are combating increased competition from online sales. “Andrew has a keen sense for uncovering anomalies and unlocking hidden gems from his data and observations,” said Wendland. “I look forward to a spirited discussion and input from the listeners to delineate what brick-and-mortar retailers need to do to meet the needs of shoppers — today and in the future.”
“Now more than ever, as we continue to adapt to a fast-evolving retail landscape and look ahead to the remaining half of 2021 and beyond, this is an incredibly important conversation for the entire industry to hear. Dave and Andrew are both experts on the topic and will offer unique perspectives and ideas that will greatly benefit our retail members,” said Spear. “There are targeted actions that can be taken now to enhance the competitive advantages offered by brick-and-mortar stores, and this thought-provoking session will share these recommendations for those who tune in.”
