Royal Blue Grocery is a small, urban market concept that was founded in Downtown Austin, Texas in 2006. There are currently six locations in Downtown Austin, three in Dallas, and one location in San Antonio. According to the owners of the Dallas locations, Zac and Emily Porter and Cullen Potts, the rebranding marks a break from the Royal Blue Grocery brand in Austin. They are taking Berkley’s Market in a new direction, with a focus on counter service, prepared foods and custom selections driven by the neighborhoods it serves. Their two downtown stores will transition to Berkley's Market on July 1st. The owners are closing the original Royal Blue Grocery store, founded in 2015 in Highland Park Village on June 27th. "For our Highland Park customers, this isn't goodbye, it's see you soon," says owner Emily Porter, who says a new location for their original store is in the works. Central Market to Reopen Tornado-Damaged Preston Royal Location in Dallas H-E-B-owned Central Market is reopening its store on Preston Road in Dallas on June 30th. The store, referred to as Preston Royal, was devastated by a tornado that swept through a 15-mile stretch of North Dallas on October 20th, 2019. Central Market immediately went to work on a complete renovation and rebuild of the Preston Royal store. The surrounding shopping center sustained irreparable damage and had to be leveled. In addition to rebuilding the store, Central Market helped the community rebuild with a $1 million donation to Dallas-area schools hit by the tornado. The also company donated 50 trees to restore the neighborhood’s signature canopy of trees and gave $50,000 to rebuild school libraries in the affected area. Central Market made the most of its reconstruction efforts by adding several new features and amenities to the Preston Royal store including curbside service, expanded produce, seafood and floral departments, additional grocery selection, a larger sandwich bar, a new and improved coffee bar experience and additional customer seating in the upstairs mezzanine area. The store was built with energy efficient fixtures and equipment. The construction materials and architecture highlight the Mid-Century modern aesthetics of the original building. “With every cloud there is a silver lining, and this has certainly held true in the Preston Royal neighborhood during this time of recovery and rebuilding,” said Butt. “Throughout this process, the entire community has stepped up to help each other through clean-up efforts, meal delivery, donations and volunteers. We are more than ready to get our doors reopened so we can start seeing and serving our loyal Preston Royal customers again.” The retailer reached out to brokers and vendors for incredible deals to “start the store off right,” in the words of Guy Chandonnet, BDM of Frozen/Dairy. According to Guy, the grand reopening deals will also apply to the Midway store since they will lose some customers to Preston. The promotions will be distributed over the course of the first month, including hot deals of at least 25% off or better, Buy One Get One Free offers, and Foodie freebies.

It is the third Consumer Health and Safety Index issues since the pandemic. Ipsos is a global market research and mystery shopping firm that delivers actionable consumer data based on public opinion.

  • Federal Retail Pharmacy Partnership Strategy for COVID-19 Vaccination for General Public Program Summary of Program for Jurisdictions
    December 2, 2020 Federal Retail Pharmacy Partnership Strategy for COVID-19 Vaccination for General Public Program Summary of Program for Jurisdictions The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are partnering with pharmacies to increase access to COVID-19 vaccine once one or more vaccines are authorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use in the United States. There are two federal pharmacy programs: The Pharmacy Partnership for Long-Term Care Program and the Federal Retail Pharmacy Partnership Strategy for COVID-19 Vaccination. Through the Federal Retail Pharmacy Partnership Strategy for COVID-19 Vaccination, retail pharmacy partners can help jurisdictions augment access to vaccine when supply increases and vaccine is recommended beyond the initial populations. With more than 90% of people in the United States living within five miles of a pharmacy, pharmacies have unique reach and ability to provide access to COVID-19 vaccine and support broad vaccination efforts. This program will provide critical vaccination services for the U.S. population, with vaccine administered at store locations at no cost to recipients. The program will be implemented in close coordination with jurisdictions to ensure optimal COVID-19 vaccination coverage and vaccine access nationwide. Program activation will be on a national scale, with select pharmacy partners receiving a direct allocation of COVID- 19 vaccine. Timing and scale of activation (how many partners, how many stores) will depend on various factors, including supply. The federal retail pharmacy program does not include every pharmacy in the United States. Pharmacies not included in the federal program will need to coordinate with their jurisdictions to become COVID- 19 vaccination providers.

Amazon is getting more serious about its brick-and-mortar retail ambitions with its first-ever Amazon- branded grocery store. The store does source a number of its items, including some produce and meat and other fresh food, from Whole Foods suppliers. It also carries Whole Foods’ 365 brand for certain items. But Amazon’s store offers other products, like Kellogg’s breakfast cereal and Coke products, that you won’t find at Amazon’s higher-end, organic-focused subsidiary. Amazon says the store combines the product availability and low prices of a grocery chain like Publix or Walmart with the convenience and quick shopping times of its Go model, with a selection that includes both big mainstream brands and local, organic produce.

  • Walmart Inc. Takes on Amazon.Com
    For the exclusive use of Q. Mays, 2020. 9-718-481 REV: JANUARY 21, 2020 DAVID COLLIS ANDY WU REMBRAND KONING HUAIYI CICI SUN Walmart Inc. Takes on Amazon.com At the start of 2018, Walmart faced critical decisions about its future as e-commerce continued to explode. Walmart just lost its long-held crown as the most valuable retailer in the world to online leader Amazon. With Amazon’s recent acquisition of Whole Foods for $13 billion, Amazon moved aggressively into the offline world to challenge Walmart in its biggest business, grocery. Walmart was not standing still, making moves like buying Jet.com for $3 billion in 2016. While Walmart’s U.S. e- commerce revenues grew to $11.5 billion in 2017, there was no debate in Bentonville, AR: Walmart remained far behind. The question for Walmart CEO Doug McMillon and Walmart.com head Marc Lore was how to respond to its most aggressive competitor ever (Exhibits 1a and 1b).1 Amazon The Early Years (1994–2001) Jeff Bezos founded Amazon in 1994 to exploit the Internet, still a relatively nascent technology. He determined that selling books online was most promising, because the number of titles available was greater than even the largest brick-and-mortar store could stock. Bezos and his wife drove west to start “Earth’s Biggest Bookstore” in Seattle, WA. Amazon offered 1 million titles for sale on its opening day in July 1995. Next year, the company had over 2.5 million book titles for sale, with revenue doubling every quarter (Exhibit 2).
