In this week’s Omni Talk Retail Fast Five news roundup, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Wiliot, Avalara, TGW, and Sezzle, Chris and Anne discussed:

• Walmart’s out-of-nowhere decision to shut down all 51 of its health centers (Source: Bloomberg)
• Best Buy’s “groundbreaking” new partnership with CNET (Source: Best Buy Press Release)
• Tesco bringing EagleAI’s gamification to its loyalty program (Source: Tesco Press Release)
• Walmart launching its first new private label food line in two decades, aka bettergoods (Source: Bloomberg)
• And closed with a look at why Nordstrom launching a new digital marketplace may just be the Mirakl it needs (Source: Retail Dive)

There’s all that, plus this month’s OmniStar (congrats Ryan Nalette of Bob’s Discount Furniture), Chris V4.7, the vagaries of selling live chickens, and why jalapeños should be branded like Dole Pineapples or Chiquita Bananas.
