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

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

  1. Block CEO Jack Dorsey announces the company will slash its workforce nearly in half, from 10,000 to just over 6,000, replacing those roles with AI.
  2. Lululemon founder Chip Wilson escalates his proxy fight, calling for more than three board members to be replaced and accusing the board of weak engagement.
  3. Target announces it will only carry cereals made without certified synthetic colors by end of May, getting ahead of major cereal brands' own reformulation timelines.
