Working with local residents on their design and maintenance, Antwerp is piloting tuinstraten (“garden streets”) in five districts across the city.

They improve resiliency (to flooding and heat), liveability and sociability—making these spaces calmer, greener and more beautiful.

QR codes will overtake the linear barcode within the next 3 years, says GS1 Chair Chris Tyas OBE. This is how we’ll deliver sustainability info to consumers. Woolworths in Australia is a good example of a retailer that is doing this today #rts2024

Supermarkets are fighting tooth and nail to prevent customers from switching to the discounters, so this would have been the last thing Sainsbury’s needed. I spoke to the BBC 👇

Great to join BBC News (UK) to discuss the rise of slow checkout lanes. Now being tested all around the 🌎 with Jumbo Supermarkten leading the way. A wonderful way to combat loneliness, be more inclusive and give customers an alternative to tech. Speed and efficiency isn’t for all!

Tomorrow’s set-up for a super early slot on BBC World. 📺Surrounded by tulips and Orbeez.
