Retail in Asia is changing fast, with weaker consumer sentiment, rising costs and shifting shopping habits forcing companies to adapt. For DFI Retail Group, that means rethinking where it can win — and how it stays relevant across a vast network of supermarkets, convenience stores, health and beauty outlets and restaurants.
In this episode of “Managing Asia,” CEO Scott Price discusses the pressures reshaping the business, from portfolio changes in Singapore and China to the growing importance of health and beauty, data and artificial intelligence.
He also explains how DFI is responding to changing consumer behaviour, why speed and flexibility matter more than ever in retail, and how he thinks about leadership in one of the region’s most complex consumer markets.
