FROM THE DESK OF DEBORAH WEINSWIG This week, the FBIC Global Retail & Technology team attended Retail’s BIG Show, produced by the National Retail Federation (NRF) in New York City. This year’s show included a conference that ran for four days and an exhibition that ran for three days. I gave a presentation on the top 16 retail tech trends for 2016, titled “Li & Fung: Delivering Value Through Technology,” along with colleagues from Li & Fung and Catalyst, a Li & Fung Company. Catalyst offers an RFID platform for identifying garments that integrates with a point-­‐of-­‐sale system and was present in two booths on the show floor. I also gave a presentation on the top 16 retail trends for 2016 at a luncheon sponsored by JDA Software for partners and customers. One of the key themes at the show was the need for retailers to provide an omni-­‐channel offering. This is not a new theme, and many speakers objected to the term altogether; perhaps “flexible shopping and shipping” is a better description. Although many retailers have not yet fully implemented omni-­‐
channel service, and have separate online and physical businesses, the speakers’ consensus was that it is essential. Another key theme was the need to generate emotions in retail. Two recent studies found that a majority of shoppers surveyed said they actually want to visit physical stores, so the onus is on retailers to offer an experience that keeps shoppers informed and delighted. At the show, we attended presentations on big data, RFID and beacons, digital retailing, IBM’s Watson artificial intelligence platform, and cross-­‐border commerce, and we received updates on what is happening in Silicon Valley and at several startups. We were pleased to attend a presentation titled “Explorium: Experimenting with the Future of Retail,” which was given by our related company, Li & Fung. The Explorium is a shopping space on our campus in Shanghai, China, that is subdivided into small shops. Our colleagues have invited companies to occupy the spaces in order to test sales and marketing ideas and conduct experiments with real consumers. Data are collected on consumer behavior and purchases, and then analyzed by partner IBM. It is a great way for retailers to test products and sales methods before going global. The mall is open only to members, and membership has been expanded beyond just Li & Fung employees to include other successful applicants. Companies such as Toys “R” Us, Build-­‐a-­‐Bear Workshop and Stride Rite have occupied space at the Explorium. We also toured IBM’s booth, where we saw many demonstrations of the benefits of data analytics and the use of Watson technology to determine a shopper’s personality type based on his or her shopper and social media posts. This year’s NRF Retail’s BIG Show show was exhilarating and exhausting, and we made many new friends and learned a great deal about what is hot in the world of retailing. We will be publishing on these topics throughout the rest of the year.

US RETAIL HEADLINES Netflix Investors Like What They See as International User Numbers Soar (January 19) Bloomberg • Netflix added 5.6 million subscribers to its online streaming service in the fourth quarter, including more than 4 million from outside the US, according to a company statement. Both of those figures surpassed analysts’ forecasts, as did projections for subscriber growth in the next quarter. •
Netflix must add customers at a steady clip to pay for its growing programming obligations, which will total $5 billion this year. CEO Reed Hastings has pledged material profits once the company completes the international rollout of the only global, on-­‐demand TV network delivered over the Internet. A Surging JCPenney to Reenter Category It Left 30 Years Ago (January 19) Retailing Today • As more millennials enter the real estate market and a rising number of homeowners invest in updating their homes, JCPenney is reentering the appliance business. The retailer announced that it will introduce a leading assortment of major appliances in 22 pilot stores beginning February 1. •
Backed by customer research that reinforces the company’s decision, the pilot is one of several strategic initiatives aimed at improving home department sales productivity, the company said. JCPenney introduced a strategic framework in 2015 that focuses on opportunities in private brands, omni-­‐channel and increasing revenue per customer, of which appliance sales will be a key component. Sephora Created an Accelerator Program for Beauty Startups Led by Women (January 19) Fashionista • In a startup landscape where companies led by women are funded at a drastically lower rate than those with a male founder—women-­‐led startups received only 3% of total venture capital dollars between 2011 and 2013, Babson College estimates—Sephora is aiming to give female beauty entrepreneurs a much-­‐needed lift. The company is kicking off a new accelerator program this year called Sephora Accelerate, which will focus on startups led by women. •
The program is part of Sephora’s larger social impact agenda, which includes beauty classes for women reentering the workforce or living in transitional housing or shelters (starting in April) and support for employees affected by natural disasters or major life events. In that vein, the company is requiring that startup applicants have a socially minded element in addition to a female founder. 2015 Was Hottest Year on Record (January 20) Mother Jones • 2015 was almost certainly the hottest year on record, according to data released by NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. In a press release, NASA stated that it was 94% confident that last year was the warmest since 1880. •
Record-­‐shattering global temperatures are becoming increasingly common, thanks to climate change. All five of the hottest years on record have occurred in the last decade. But the amount by which 2015 shattered the previous record, set in 2014, was itself a record, scientists said. That was due in part to last year’s El Niño, characterized by exceptionally high temperatures in the Pacific Ocean.

For the quarter, Zalando expects an adjusted EBIT between €61 million (US$67 million) and €78 million (US$85 million), corresponding to an EBIT margin between 7% and 9%. •
In fiscal year 2015, the retailer achieved overall group sales between €2,955 million (US$3,220 million) and €2,962 million (US$3,228 million), and expects an adjusted EBIT margin of around 3.3% to 3.9%. Zalando confirmed that the full year results are within its prior guidance of 33% to 35% revenue growth. The retailer will publish its final, audited results on March 1, 2016. Amazon May Be Mulling Ocado Acquisition (January 19) Retail-­‐week.com • E-­‐commerce giant Amazon is reportedly mulling a decision to acquire British online supermarket Ocado. Shares in the UK grocer soared 19% in the early hours of trading on Tuesday, January 19, following “rumors in the city.” The first move by Amazon that suggested it might launch a UK grocery operation was its signing of a 10-­‐year lease on a former Tesco warehouse in August 2015. •
The US retailer had already stepped into the online grocery retail segment in the UK with its November 2015 launch of Amazon Pantry. Prime members, who are currently able to access this service, can shop from a range of over 4,000 items in the grocery and household departments. Spokespersons from both companies declined to comment on the “market rumor and speculation.” Bankrupt Retail Group Macintosh Sells Shoe Business (January 19) Retaildetail.eu • Retail group Macintosh, which filed for bankruptcy in late December, has sold its shoe chain, Scapino, to a family-­‐owned Dutch retailer called Ziengs Schoenen. This news comes just as Scapino’s Belgian affiliate, Brantano, is to be acquired by the CEO of footwear retailer Schoenen Torfs and two retail entrepreneurs. •
It is yet unknown whether Ziengs Schoenen, which runs 77 stores in the Netherlands, will acquire all of Scapino’s 200 stores. The bankruptcy administrators have, however, confirmed that the negotiations will include Scapino’s entire store portfolio. ASDA to Lay Off Hundreds in the UK (January 18) Retailgazette.co.uk • One of Britain’s largest supermarket chains, Walmart-­‐owned ASDA, announced that it will make several changes in its organization structure in the coming months, including layoffs. DEBORAH WEINSWIG, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR–HEAD OF GLOBAL RETAIL & TECHNOLOGY DEBORAHWEINSWIG@FUNG1937.COM US: 917.655.6790 HK: 852.6119.1779 CN: 86.186.1420.3016 Copyright © 2016 The Fung Group.

Sources did not confirm the final number of layoffs, but mentioned that it would be “in the hundreds.” •
Recent data from Kantar Worldpanel suggested that sales at ASDA declined by 3.5% in the 12 weeks through January 3. The grocer’s festive trading update will be released next month, along with its parent company’s results. Ahold and Delhaize Group File Merger Proposal (January 15) Retaildetail.eu • Ahold and Delhaize Group have taken their merger agreement forward and filed the necessary paperwork in Brussels. The proposal details the companies’ plans once the merger is completed and includes support for their belief that the merger will not lead to a significant reduction in the labor force. •
The filing of this proposal is a necessary step for the companies to convene a meeting with their shareholders and obtain their approval. The entire process, including negotiating with the companies’ employees and obtaining the approval of the shareholders, is expected to be completed by mid-­‐2016. ASIA TECH HEADLINES On-­‐Demand Logistics Startup TheLorry Scores Series A for Regional Expansion (January 19) TechinAsia • Malaysia-­‐based TheLorry announced it raised a US$1.5 million series A round led by SPH Media Fund, with participation from Silicon Valley–based Elixir Capital. The company intends to use this funding to strengthen its presence in Malaysia, introduce new services and prepare for regional expansion. •
To use the company’s service, individual customers go to the site to book vehicles and, if necessary, other extra services such as manpower, boxes, packing and dismantling. Jobs are then dispatched to TheLorry’s vendor app, where vendors can claim them on a first-­‐come, first-­‐serve basis. Education Startups Capitalize on China’s “Maker” Movement (January 19) e27.co • Chinese parents tend to enroll their children in a multitude of extracurricular classes, and the latest craze is “maker” classes, where children learn by creating various projects. •
China’s maker movement follows similar movements in Europe and the US, where maker spaces, or communal spaces where makers can share tools, knowledge and projects, started emerging in the early 2000s. Hospital Tech Firm Medico Catches a Case of Seed Funding from East Ventures (January 18) TechinAsia • Indonesia-­‐based hospital management software startup Medico announced that it closed a seed funding round from venture capital firm East Ventures. The deal size was undisclosed. Medico is still in its development phase, with plans to officially launch in the second quarter of this year. •
According to a 2015 Frost & Sullivan report, the Indonesian healthcare sector is expected to triple, from US$7 billion in 2014 to US$21 billion in 2019. East Ventures has also invested in Indonesian medtech startup Konsula, a firm that acts as an online doctor directory: users can browse to find the right doctor and also book appointments through the site.

India’s Swiggy Raises US$35 Million for Food Delivery (January 18) TechCrunch • Swiggy, a restaurant delivery startup that claims to be the largest in India after passing Foodpanda last month, has raised US$35 million in a series C round. The funding brings the company’s total funds raised to just over US$53 million. •
Swiggy is planning to use the new cash injection to expand its business in its home market, where the food delivery business is estimated to be worth US$15 billion. Though Swiggy is live now in eight cities, it is still considered small, with some 5,000 restaurants on its platform and orders approaching 1 million each month. JD.com’s Financial Services Arm Lands US$1 Billion (January 18) TechCrunch • E-­‐commerce giant JD.com’s financial services division recently took in ¥6.65 billion (around US$1.01 billion) in a funding round led by Sequoia Capital China, China Harvest Investments and China Taiping Insurance. The round leaves JD Finance with a valuation of approximately US$7.1 billion. •
JD Finance provides a range of financial services and products to consumers, startups, SMEs and other businesses in China. Last year, it partnered with US-­‐based ZestFinance to create a joint venture that offers credit services in China.

Brazilian Retailers Plan for Better Days (January 19) Chicago Tribune • Brazilian retail sales increased by 1.5% in November, against expectations of a contraction. However, according to salespeople, shoppers are selecting cheaper items. •
This resilience has encouraged Brazilian retailers to expand, and shoemaker Arezzo Industria e Comercio plans to open as many as 25 stores in 2016, down slightly from 30 new openings planned for 2015. The country’s biggest supermarket chain, Companhia Brasileira, is maintaining its plans to increase its number of convenience and wholesale cash-­‐and-­‐carry stores. Brazil Not Expected to Return to Growth Until at Least 2018 (January 19) Bloomberg • The International Monetary Fund reduced Brazil’s 2017 economic forecast to no growth from a prior estimate of 2.3% growth against expectations that GDP will decline by 3.5% this year. •
If the revised forecast ends up being accurate, it will mark three years of non-­‐growth in the country. “Economic distress” in Brazil and other nations is expected to pull Latin America and the Caribbean into a 0.3% decline this year.
