Retail Executive Roundtable, January 15th.
Tavern on the Green, NYC

A recent study by Planet Retail entitled 'Private Label Trends Worldwide 2007' reported that leading US retailers are aggressively pursing private label strategies to compete with brand manufacturers and global retailers such as Tesco. This study goes on to state that private label accounts for 35% of sales volume in Europe, and Tesco and Sainsbury, both Eqos customers attribute over 50% of their sales to private label. But there are challenges associated with adopting a private label strategy: product safety, ethical sourcing, the ability for suppliers to conform to consumer and regulatory standards.

Join industry leaders and peers for a Retail Executive Roundtable on Sourcing and Supplier Management during NRF in Manhattan. The panel discussion, hosted by AMR Research Director Mike Griswold, will include executives from Hannaford Brothers, Tesco, and WalMart (ex-CIO) and cover topics such as:

• Scaling private label business
• Optimizing supplier performance
• Managing risk
