Welcome to LUNCH WITH ROB. My name is Rob Gerlsbeck, and I'm the editor at Canadian Grocer magazine. I'm fascinated by food and retail, and how people shop and buy (or in some cases don't buy). This blog is devoted to the fascinating things that happen when shoppers head deep into the aisles. Plus, I'll speak about industry issues and trends as well.

The greatest grocers you’ve (maybe) never heard of

In Denmark, it’s all about the phat and all that

The good, the bad and the economy

Fresh Market vs. Facebook

A “sloching” giant

Staffing, supermarket share and scanners

Price, value…and desire

Now that’s entertainment!

It’s Carrefour’s Planet. We just live in it
