In this session with Retail Dive, our expert panelists will offer predictions on how promotional this holiday season will be and how retailers can navigate pricing strategies. Session 2 How retailers built inventory resiliency around tariff uncertainty In this session hosted by Supply Chain Dive journalists, attendees will hear about how tariffs impacted the peak shipping season, the state of retail inventories and what strategies retailers implemented to ensure a smooth holiday season. Session 3 How retailers are thinking about the store experience this holiday season Retailers are reevaluating how to best use their stores during the holidays, from deciding how to deploy staff during the busiest time of the year to using their brick-and-mortar footprints to fulfill online orders. In this session with Retail Dive journalists, our panelists will discuss strategies retailers are deploying to get customers into stores, seasonal hiring and how to marry the online and in-store experiences. Session 4 How marketers can engage holiday shoppers amid economic uncertainty A question at the top of marketers’ minds is how big the appetite will be for shopping this holiday season given ongoing economic turmoil in the face of far-reaching tariffs. In this session with our Marketing Dive reporters, attendees will learn how leaders are balancing rising costs with the need to drive brand awareness and sales.
