Listen Later

In this special live episode of Marketing in the Madness, recorded at the Retail Tech Show, Katie Street sits down with Fabrice Khullar, Director of Product Experience at Boots, to talk retail transformation, AI, product experience, UX and the future of the customer journey.

Fabrice shares what it takes to lead digital transformation inside a major retail brand such as Boots, what retailers need to do to move faster and how product and UX teams can help businesses stay closer to what customers actually need.

They also explore agentic commerce, fragmented buying journeys, the continued power of physical stores, Gen Z’s relationship with technology and why experimentation needs to become a core part of how retail teams plan and build.
