Notes from the Road: UK retail is brilliant

Friday, June 1st, 2007

I’ve been in the UK for the past week and what I have noticed most recently is that there are so many new and innovative retail concepts here. The US looks stodgy by comparison:

  • Tesco kills Walmart in every way.
  • Boots’ approach to health is much smarter than any US pharmacy retailer.
  • Ladbrokes makes OTB look like a crackhouse.
