In the emerging retail world of Plexiglas partitions, modified showroom layouts, virtual engagement, and shifting shopping behaviors, HME retailers are adapting to meet their community's needs while protecting staff and customers.  Innovation is at the heart of HME retail companies, and the same ingenuitive thinking that brought them beyond the barriers of insurance will serve retail suppliers well as they find creative ways to navigate our new normal. Join retail experts from across the Industry spectrum in this interactive panel presentation as we unpack key pillars of retail while highlighting emerging trends and best practices in a COVID-19 environment.  The fundamentals of retail remain: training & retaining the right staff, inventory and product mix, marketing and advertising, administrative functions, insights and analysis, back-end operations, and more. Panelists will provide insights on how they are approaching these topics while adapting their models to the evolving COVID-19 landscape.
