In this episode of Add To Cart, host Nathan Bush sits down with James Johnson, Enterprise Leader at Shopify, to unpack how the global commerce platform is evolving to meet the future of eCommerce. As a former retailer turned tech leader (with stints at Michael Hill and Salesforce) James brings a grounded perspective on Shopify’s transformation into a commerce operating system. The discussion explores Shopify’s latest ‘Editions’ release, which puts AI at the centre of everything from customer segmentation with Sidekick to dynamic storefront building with Horizon themes. They delve into the practical applications of AI for retail, from smarter customer service roles to POS innovations, and name-drop forward-thinking retailers such as JB Hi-Fi, Hairhouse, and Crumpler.
