In the longer term, consumers will be eager for a shopping..."
    “While inflationary pricing has most consumers prioritizing cost savings, Black consumers will be especially strong targets for value messaging. However, value will be better received as ‘getting more for your money,’ including help with health goals, making shoppers feel seen and understood, and providing an enjoyable and engaging shopping experience,..."

    “Grocery retailing has arguably already entered its post-pandemic state. It experienced rapid change in the early months – with sales spikes, widespread shortages and concerns about virus transmission – but quickly settled into its new normal. Today, most Canadians are comfortable going to the grocery store and little will change..."
    “The COVID-19 pandemic has had significant and widespread impact on the grocery sector; accelerating ecommerce growth by years and causing people to change their grocery shopping routines in a more mindful way as they look to be efficient with their time spent in stores and frugal with their grocery budgets...."
    “It is so cliché to use the word unprecedented in 2020, but this truly is an unprecedented time for the grocery sector right now as significant changes are seen in consumer approach to grocery shopping.
