Outcomes of the Omni-Channel Retailing Conference 2014

Submitted by: Trade Conferences International Summers

TCI hosted the Omni-Channel Retailing Conference on Wednesday, 12 March 2014 and Thursday, 13 March 2014 for retail professionals from both physical and online stores whose responsibilities include: Branding, Logistics and Supply Chain, Product & Pricing, Marketing, Strategy and Innovation implementation, Cross Channel Marketing, Retail strategy and Technology.

The conference which was held at the Focus Rooms in Sunninghill, Johannesburg helped retail professionals gain insight on how to integrate their offline and online store activities by hearing about the requirements for retailers to remain competitive throughout the channels through the implementation of strategies relevant to the connected consumer; strategies such as the effectiveness and efficiency of omni-channel logistics.

During the informative two day event delegates and attendees discussed best practices for the expanding mobile retail market as retailers gear towards the role of omni-channel in creating a competitive advantage ; this was achieved by engaging discussions on  how local retailers can keep abreast of developments in this environment by understanding the business and technology challenges of an omni-channel strategy.

In the meantime, we are busy working on events that are still to take place; events such as:
