2023 has finally arrived and Chain Store Guide has an exciting slate of news stories to share. CSG is celebrating its 90 year anniversary and we will be looking back through the decades at how each industry has adapted as well as predicting where they may go. We’ll be kicking things off in March by celebrating Women’s History Month and examining their accomplishments as leaders in multiple industries. Our articles will also focus on the strides taken to include more women in leadership roles and the actions that notable corporations are taking.

As always, we keep tabs on every industry and will continue to bring you breaking news as it happens. Our databases cover both small and large chains and we will be spotlighting some of these David v. Goliath battles, including how regional chains compete with their national counterparts. CSG will also be looking at how the top trends like A.I. and social media are altering day to day operations for different industries as well as predictions for some of the developments that will take center stage in 2023. In keeping with current events, we plan to discuss how inflation has changed the way we do business. This will answer questions about how suppliers, manufacturers, and retailers are dealing with shifting prices and how consumers are reacting to the changes. Inflation has been a contentious issue for everyone, yet there are other controversies grabbing headlines in the retail, restaurant, and grocery industries. Our team will be investigating these topics such as lawsuits, new labor & wage laws, and the changes that could affect you.

With 90 years of CSG, there is much to look back upon and even more to look forward to. We will continue to bring you the latest updates in every industry and forecast what lies ahead. We hope you join us for another exciting year. Follow us on Twitter and LinkedIn to stay up-to-date with our latest series.
