Retail Cities is proud to offer our third annual discounter workshop designed for suppliers and service providers who have product listings in at least one country with either Aldi or Lidl, or both, and wish to expand and improve continually at an international level.
Our team of expert presenters all have decades of experience with either Aldi, Lidl, or both. The workshop is designed to answer the most difficult questions you get from your own organization and at the same time give you new perspectives on what the experts predict for the future, what other suppliers are doing with these complicated customers, and new ideas around engaging consumers in the discount environment.
In this year’s workshop, the main theme is “Discounter Boom”. Discounters produced very strong topline sales growth in 2022 and early 2023. This is creating a new set of opportunities and challenges for the discounters themselves. At the same time, it creates challenges for suppliers and service providers around forecasting volumes, allocating resources, remaining in stock, problem-solving at high speed, and getting internal support to drive further growth.
The session will last three hours with a brief 5-minute stretch period for you and your colleagues to reset your thinking, just briefly. Come prepared to load up on insights.
