New Approaches To Retail Store Designs And Insurance

eCommerce

Dick’s Sporting Goods plans to soon open a new concept store with indoor and outdoor multi-sport experiences. In strategic planning, Target is focused on developing its fleet of small-format stores – especially those on college campuses and urban streets. And in insurance, embedded insurance is providing an alternative to the clunkiness of traditional insurer offerings. All this, Today in Data.
