Grocery is evolving quickly as consumers shift toward value and develop new dietary preferences; at the same time, AI is driving a need to reimagine shopping experiences.

This year’s agenda highlighted that amid change and global headwinds, there is a tremendous opportunity to deliver growth and build grocery and CPG organizations ready for the future.

Across 50+ sessions, Groceryshop explored:

• The role technology, particularly AI, plays in unlocking efficiencies
• How brands and retailers best captivate shoppers to drive brand loyalty and volume
• How internal collaboration and organizational changes can power unified commerce
• The future of retail media and alternative revenue streams

The show’s content balanced new research on the industry’s future with practical case studies from leading global retailers and consumer brands. We also showcased Test Kitchen, a new interactive content format where practitioners shared how they are using cutting-edge technology, like generative and agentic AI, to drive real results.

We had a phenomenal time at Groceryshop this year, with powerful talks onstage from senior executives, thousands of conversations at our Meetup and Tabletalks programs, lively chats and technology showcased across the exhibit hall, and Neon Trees at Groceryfest.

I’m excited to see how you’ll turn these connections and ideas into action. See you next year!
