Our guest is Gavin Whitelaw https://rijs.fas.harvard.edu/gavin-h-whitelaw who is the Executive Director of Edwin O. Reischauer Institute of Japanese Studies at Harvard University. Gavin has spent over a decade living and teaching in Japan. Before joining the Reischauer Institute in 2016, he was the Senior Associate Professor of Anthropology and Japan Studies at International Christian University (ICU) in Tokyo for eight years. He has researched a wide range of topics, including Japanese contemporary commerce, work life, foodways and material culture. Gavin is here today to discuss Konbini, the Japanese-style convenience store, a subject on which he has done extensive research. Convenience stores were born in the U.S in the 1920s and were transplanted to Japan in the 1960s. Then its concept developed into something very different, which has become a necessary part of Japanese society overall. As of January 2025, there were 56,749 Konbini nationwide. In this episode, we will discuss the unique characteristics of Japanese-style convenience stores, what you can buy and experience at Konbini , Gavin's intriguing work experience at Konbini shops and what he discovered there, the possibilities of exporting Japanese Konbini abroad and much, much more!!!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In this episode of “At Your Convenience,” CSP Executive Editor Hannah Hammond talks to Scott Smith, vice president of IT at convenience-store chain Parker's Kitchen. Parker's Kitchen is No. 73 on CSP's 2025 Top 202 ranking of U.S. c-store chains by store count.Speaking from CSP's C-StoreTEC forum, which was held Oct. 27-29 in Plano, Texas, Smith shared how the Savannah, Georgia-based chain of more than 100 stores uses artificial intelligence (AI) now, and what opportunities there may be for it in the future.

About a quarter of the 152K+ convenience stores have spoken, and they shared some interesting opinions about the growing energy drinks category. And even if you aren't familiar with every insight regarding this beverage category, I'm sure you intuitively recognize that convenience is the most important sales channel (by sales dollars) for energy drinks in the U.S. market. But here are my top “categorical” takeaways from the most recent Goldman Sachs Beverage Bytes survey. Firstly, 60% of retailers are expecting energy drink brands to increase prices before the end of the year. And I started off in that direction because I don't want any avid consumers of energy drinks to be caught off guard when your preferred daily caffeine fix gets more expensive by a few percentage points later this year. Next, while I wasn't particularly a fan of this new flavor…most convenience store owners characterized the launch performance of Monster Ultra Vice Guava as “very strong.” Finally, convenience store owners are projecting that every energy drink brand in the top seven will experience full-year growth of at least mid-single-digits from 2024.
