Total Retail Tech Insights was created as a resource for executives in the retail industry who seek information and solutions for their technology wants and needs. Through brief but in-depth interviews with subject matter experts and industry thought leaders, listeners take away actionable information and practical advice to help drive their technology road maps. From idea to implementation, Total Retail Tech Insights is the content retail executives need to optimize their use of technology throughout their organizations.

In this episode of Total Retail Tech Insights, Editor-in-Chief Joe Keenan interviews Juliana Prather, chief marketing officer of EDITED, the leader in retail intelligence, market strategy and enterprise data. Listen in as Prather discusses her professional background in retail, how EDITED works with retailers, and her take on the current supply chain environment for brands and retailers. She shares how she sees the environment shifting in 2022, how retailers should address these issues beyond the holidays, and how consumer demand outpacing supply impacts pricing. Prather discusses how global retailer Mango worked with EDITED to effectively navigate the supply chain crisis this holiday season, and what retailers should do when an out-of-season product finally shows up after being stuck in the supply chain.

In addition, Prather shares how EDITED helps retail teams collaborate internally to enable fast, strategic decisions; how retailers should address inflation and price increases as we head into 2022; and how EDITED’s technology helps retailers address these challenges. Prather discusses the current consumer insights and shopping trends she thinks will stick around in the new year, and how retailers and brands can stay on top of them. Lastly, she shares EDITED's resources for retailers, including its free Insider Briefing newsletter, how to book a demo, and EDITED's Retail Dashboard, tracking new product arrivals during a year of supply chain disruption.
