Retail's Next Advantage Is Intelligence, Not Scale

Original: Retail’s Next Advantage Isn’t Scale. It’s Intelligence | Opinion

A Newsweek opinion piece argues that scale is no longer the decisive advantage in retail, and that intelligence — the ability to use data and technology to understand and serve customers better — will separate winners from losers going forward. The argument reflects a broader debate across the industry about how retailers should compete as e-commerce, analytics and AI reshape the market. Retail executives and analysts are weighing whether intelligence can really outweigh sheer size and buying power.

Why now: Retailers are actively debating how AI and data capabilities change competitive advantage in the industry.
