I'm pleased to share a 15-minute interview I recently recorded with Steve Holtz on his podcast, Convenience Weekly. In our conversation, we explored the current economy and its potential impact on our industry, particularly as we navigate post-COVID adjustments and the rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence. Our industry remains highly dynamic, but it's also facing new competitive elements that many are not yet prepared for.
