Welcome to Omni Talk's Retail Daily Minute, sponsored by ZenlineAI and Mirakl.

In today's Retail Daily Minute, Omni Talk's Chris Walton discusses:

  • Instacart winds down its Caper smart cart business, which it bought for $350M in 2021, as reports say DoorDash is nearing a $17 billion deal to buy the company.
  • The FTC and 20 states sue Dollar General, alleging it routinely charges shoppers more at the register than its shelf tags and ads show.
  • Banana Republic launches "The Agency," a TikTok-first comedy series, as Gap Inc. leans into entertainment marketing to reach younger shoppers.
