The Future of Food

The brand new book The Future of Food will have its official launch at RetailDetail Night. How can we continue to feed a growing world population healthily and sustainably? RetailDetail founder and co-author Jorg Snoeck will present his thought-provoking vision of the future and will introduce speakers with innovative business models in food: Stijn Martens from online supermarket Hopr, Quirin Dalemans from Deliveroo and ethno-marketeer Rachid Lamrabat from Tiqah are just some of the speakers. Participants will receive a copy of the book!

The boundaries of customer experience

The Gamechangers programme takes a look ahead: Which retail models are future-proof in a digital world post-Covid? What are the high expectations of tomorrow’s consumers? RetailDetail editor-in-chief Stefan Van Rompaey will introduce innovative retail concepts that push the boundaries of the customer experience. Joined by, among other, trend watcher Maarten Leyts from Trendwolves, entrepreneurs Jim Cantens and Guy Rietens from the concept store The Guest and Karl Lechat who created a new bicycle store chain for mobility player D’Ieteren.
