For many grocers, fast-growing digital channels are also their least profitable.

With digital playing an integral role in the future of the industry, grocers must innovate—finding ways to improve margins and capitalize on the growth opportunity of online channels.

Maximizing the profitability of grocery’s fast-growing digital channels
