  Though recovering from surgery for a ruptured Achilles heel, BrandSource CEO Jim Ristow put on a good show when he took the stage at the BrandSource National Convention 2021 ’s first General Session, which took place on Sunday, August 22, the second day of the four-day conference, at the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center in Nashville. “ Double Down ,” as the 2021 convention has been dubbed, was the first in-person iteration of the AVB buying group’s bi-annual gathering since March 2020. Despite closures and inventory issues over the past 18 months, there was good news to share. “In 2020, you all outpaced the home furnishing and appliances industries by 15 percent,” Ristow said. “What that means is that people who used to buy from that big box in 2020, they bought from you… and in the year 2020 today, you’re still outpacing the industry by 15 percent.

Inflation-Weary Consumers Opting for More Affordable Store Brands

  THE DAILY SCOPE, 4/4/2022: The grocery and CPG retail business is often a harbinger of things to come – maybe it’s just because everyone buys food, even non-TV households – so it’s a good place to gauge the mood of consumers. After a pandemic that started with shortages of household goods like toilet paper and cleaning supplies, the current lineup of basics isn’t exactly flying off the shelves. The Wall St. Journal reports that consumers are returning to store brands and buying smaller quantities of everything from laundry detergent to cereal. With shortages during the pandemic, many retailers upped their production on in-store brands, so that move dovetails nicely with the need for more affordable products.
