In this episode of the Fleet News Group podcast, we sit down with Joe Sofra, CEO of ANC Delivers, to explore the company's bold journey to electrify last mile deliveries. With a history stretching back over 100 years — from delivering theatre tickets on bicycles to powering today's e-commerce giants like Bunnings, IKEA, JB Hi-Fi, and Telstra — ANC has built its reputation on innovation and customer experience.Joe reflects on the landmark 2019 partnership with IKEA that committed to 100% zero-emission home deliveries by 2025, a move that pushed ANC to the forefront of sustainability in logistics. He candidly shares the challenges of starting with first-generation EVs, the learning curve of range anxiety, charging solutions, and engaging contractor drivers in the transition.By World EV Day 2025, ANC reached a major milestone: more than 100 electric vehicles on the road. Joe explains how this achievement has deepened relationships with partners and delivery professionals, while also transforming the customer experience — from quieter streets to greener driveways.Looking ahead, ANC is targeting 300+ EVs by 2028 and is rethinking efficiency with a “carbon cost per order” approach, aiming to do more with fewer vehicles. For Joe, the mission is clear: electric vehicles are not just viable for metro last mile deliveries — they're the future.This conversation highlights ANC's role as a pioneer of zero-emission logistics and its commitment to creating lasting smiles for customers while cutting carbon emissions.

The breathtaking land of Sweden—a country that perfectly balances natural beauty, cultural depth, and modern innovation. Known as one of the happiest nations on earth, Sweden is more than just IKEA furniture and ABBA songs; it's a country that thrives on history, sustainability, and creativity.Situated in Northern Europe, Sweden is the largest country in Scandinavia and the fifth largest in Europe by area. With coastlines along the Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Bothnia, and borders shared with Norway and Finland, Sweden's geography is a tapestry of forests, mountains, lakes, and islands that provide endless opportunities for exploration.The capital city, Stockholm, is often called the “Venice of the North.” Built across 14 islands and connected by over 50 bridges, the city blends medieval architecture with modern design. From the cobblestone streets of Gamla Stan, the old town, to the futuristic architecture of its business district, Stockholm reflects both history and progress. Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of The Voice of Retail podcast, host Michael LeBlanc welcomes back retail strategist, educator, and thought leader David Ian Gray, Principal of DIG360 Consulting Ltd. and retail faculty at Capilano University's School of Business. Together, they explore the latest Angus Reid survey on Canadian shopping habits and the rapidly evolving pre-owned and circular retail economy.David begins by setting the stage with his dual role: guiding Canadian retailers through strategic challenges while also developing retail-focused academic programming in Vancouver. He shares his perspective on how the local retail scene is rebuilding post-pandemic, with indie retail and dining seeing a revival even as downtown Vancouver struggles with the loss of anchor stores like Nordstrom and Hudson's Bay.The heart of the conversation is David's latest consumer research, developed in partnership with Angus Reid. The study reveals that 77% of Canadian adults purchased pre-owned items in the past year, proving that second-hand shopping has gone fully mainstream. Canadians aren't just bargain hunting—they're motivated by sustainability, affordability, and the thrill of finding something unique.The conversation highlights surprising generational behaviors, such as Gen Z's enthusiasm for vinyl records and printed books, a countertrend to the assumption that digital-first generations avoid physical media. David suggests this reflects a desire for independence from digital platforms and a deeper need for tangible, cultural experiences.Michael and David also unpack the dominance of Facebook Marketplace, where 76% of respondents reported making a purchase in the past year, underscoring the hybrid online/offline nature of second-hand shopping. They contrast this with other channels—Kijiji, eBay, luxury resale platforms like Poshmark, charity thrift stores, and even brand-led resale initiatives from Canada Goose, IKEA, and Patagonia.For Canadian retailers, the research carries critical lessons. Second-hand is no longer a niche category but a major competitor for consumer dollars. David warns that traditional retailers may underestimate how much revenue is “leaking” into resale markets. While profitability challenges remain—logistics, inventory management, and product quality—brands that strategically embrace resale can enhance consumer loyalty, sustainability credentials, and differentiation.The episode closes with a rapid-fire round covering the future of AI in retail, Hudson's Bay's uncertain real estate footprint, Vancouver's Retail West conference, and the biggest Canadian retail story to watch in 2025: tariff uncertainty. David emphasizes that until trade clarity is achieved, Canadian retailers will remain cautious in decision-making. The Voice of Retail podcast is presented by Hale, a performance marketing partner trusted by brands like ASICS, Saje, and Orangetheory to scale with focus and impact. Michael LeBlanc is the president and founder of M.E. LeBlanc & Company Inc, a senior retail advisor, keynote speaker and now, media entrepreneur. He has been on the front lines of retail industry change for his entire career. Michael has delivered keynotes, hosted fire-side discussions and participated worldwide in thought leadership panels, most recently on the main stage in Toronto at Retail Council of Canada's Retail Marketing conference with leaders from Walmart & Google. He brings 25+ years of brand/retail/marketing & eCommerce leadership experience with Levi's, Black & Decker, Hudson's Bay, CanWest Media, Pandora Jewellery, The Shopping Channel and Retail Council of Canada to his advisory, speaking and media practice.Michael produces and hosts a network of leading retail trade podcasts, including the award-winning No.1 independent retail industry podcast in America, Remarkable Retail with his partner, Dallas-based best-selling author Steve Dennis; Canada's top retail industry podcast The Voice of Retail and Canada's top food industry and one of the top Canadian-produced management independent podcasts in the country, The Food Professor with Dr. Sylvain Charlebois from Dalhousie University in Halifax.Rethink Retail has recognized Michael as one of the top global retail experts for the fifth year in a row, the National Retail Federation has designated Michael as on their Top Retail Voices for 2025, Thinkers 360 has named him on of the Top 50 global thought leaders in retail, RTIH has named him a top 100 global though leader in retail technology and Coresight Research has named Michael a Retail AI Influencer.

「IKEAが新宿と原宿2店舗の営業終了へ　首都圏での販売戦略見直し「持続可能な成長に注力」」　IKEAが原宿店と新宿店の営業を終了します。家具販売店大手IKEAは公式ホームページで、2026年の初頭に「IKEA原宿」と「IKEA新宿」の営業を終了すると発表しました。IKEAは「持続可能な成長に注力する」としたうえで首都圏での販売戦略について、店舗に限らずネット通販など、方法やバランスの見直しを進める方針です。2店舗の営業終了後は「IKEA渋谷」が唯一の都心型店舗となります。IKEAは「この秋オープンするIKEA広島をはじめ、今後も日本においてさらに身近な存在となることを目指していく」としています。

In this short but insightful episode I share my thoughts on why physically overweight men in the UK make weekend pilgrimages to shopping outlets, in this case, IKEA. This week I myself visited IKEA'S Nottingham outlet to purchase their well known shelving units and witnessed a deluge of overweight to obese men between the ages of approximately 20 to 60 years of age. As a professional Personal Trainer, my optics generally gauge the amount of excess bodyweight and or body fat a person is carrying, of which the current state of personal physical health among men in the UK is rapidly increasing to startling levels. There may be a multitude of factors, as to why low barrier to entry shopping outlets are popular with unhealthy men, however in this particular discussion, I'll contribute my reasoning, that of a possible distraction from poor health and of course IKEA's carefully planned out structure of it's retail stores. The colorful grotto like sections make a welcome, short term alleviation, from the chronic discomfort and even painful acceptance of physiological disorders and or disease. Consider this comparison....a smoker uses nicotine gum or patches in his quest for eventual cessation of guaranteed health decline, in the way of cancer, coronary heart disease and organ failure. A man addicted to alcohol consumption might turn to exercise or join a therapy group in his journey towards sobriety. Both smoking and alcohol addictions are seriously damaging to men's quality of life and as such we take steps to undoing the aforementioned health implications, but obesity is considered by some a touchy or 'off limits' subject to broach with a friend, family member or work colleague, largely due to it's connection to low levels of emotional or academic intelligence. This commonplace and socially awkward conversation can give rise to unchecked health readings, by way of avoiding GP visits, or good intention based enquiries from loved ones. Months can lead to years of borderline indifference to expanding waistlines and shortness of breath, to name but a few. So, what we now have are swathes of 20 to 60 something year old's frequenting shopping retail parks in search of that colorful distraction from their inevitable decline in health. A final word of encouragement from me gents...yes you should still from time to time indulge in a bit of retail therapy, only after you have invested in your physical and mental improvements first. Trust me, the new furniture or shiny new kitchen units will undoubtedly feel better with less unwanted body fat and a stronger, healthier heart. Please feel free to share my musings with someone you think might benefit from any one of the catalogue of episodes. Watch on YouTube or listen on Spotify and Amazon Music. Thanks for listening.

Recorded live from the Chicago Architectural Biennial's booth at EXPO Chicago, Bad at Sports tailgates with artist Edra Soto and designer Dan Sullivan—Chicago's unofficial art-world power couple. Soto unpacks her first solo art fair booth at Engage Projects, where monoblock plastic chairs, airbrushed T-shirts, and Puerto Rican vernacular architecture collide with memory, loss, and celebration. Sullivan, founder of Navillus Woodworks, riffs on craft, Ikea hacks, and the business of making high-end furniture while moonlighting as Soto's collaborator and fabricator. "Dan helps." What starts as a playful conversation about paparazzi, beer coolers, and chairs spirals into a meditation on grief, Puerto Rican cultural identity, and the design politics of everyday objects. Along the way, we hit Bad Bunny, the Bear restaurant, euphemisms around death, Catholic ritual, and the French (yes, the French). We close out with music talk—Sullivan on his bands Nadnavillus and Arriver—and a standing invitation for Bad at Sports to share the stage. Death, dying, lawn chairs, and punk rock. Welcome to EXPO.

Motherhood isn't diapers, snacks, and never-ending laundry — that's caregiving. And while caregiving is hard, it's not the same thing as being a mom.In this conversation with Hannah Olson, we break down the difference between the two and why this shift in language can lift so much of the guilt and pressure moms feel.We get into:Why “motherhood is hard” is the wrong phrase (and what to say instead).The trap of becoming a workaholic in caregiving.The breastfeeding/pumping guilt spiral so many of us know too well.Why the relationship you build matters more than the task list you complete.Whether you're in the thick of it or still deciding if kids are even for you, this episode is a refreshing take on what motherhood really means.Connect with Hannah HERE on IG.ABOUT HANNAH:Hannah loves creating, celebrating, and connecting. She spends her time filming and editing Instagram videos, attempting to master sourdough, forgetting to water $30 IKEA plants, and hanging out with her husband and six kids. She's passionate about sharing the message: “Motherhood isn't a job--it's a relationship,” helping women release mom guilt, lighten the mental and physical load, and create a version of motherhood that feels fun and expansive. She also hosts a (sometimes) weekly podcast, Rantish, where she dives into her strong opinions—from Pretzel Jello Salad and pelvic floor physical therapy to widely-believed motherhood myths. Her hope is to build a sense of connection and belonging for women—especially lonely stay-at-home moms.SUMMARY:00:00 – Intro & Meeting Hannah How Renae found Hannah online + why she wanted her on the show.01:10 – Six Kids?!

Sommaren 2024 går en våg av telefonbedrägerier mot äldre genom Sverige. Men bedragarligan gör flera misstag och ett ska leda polisen rakt till dem. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. En varm juni-eftermiddag får 97-åriga Harriet ett sms på sin mobil. Det står att hon har beställt en soffgrupp från IKEA, och måste bekräfta leveransadressen. Men någon soffa känner hon inte igen. Kan det vara barnbarnet med samma efternamn som menas, har det skett en förväxling som bör rättas till?En och en halv timme senare har Harriet förmått föra över nästan alla sina besparingar – 70 000 kronor – till ett bankkonto som tillhör en 16-årig kille i nordvästra Skåne.– Det var bara... Vad gör jag nu? Vad gör jag? Ska jag ta ett lån? Jag sov inte en blund på hela natten, säger Harriet.”Inga Kalle Blomkvist-typer direkt”När Harriet utsätts för bedragarligan har polisen redan fått in flera anmälningar som vittnar om samma förfarande. Men trots att bedragarna är slarviga och lämnar mängder med spår så tycks ärendena läggas på hög, och saknar förutsättningar för att leda till åtal. Tills nu.För överföringen av Harriets pengar ska ge upphov till en kedjereaktion, som till sist för polisen rakt in i ligans kärna.I det här avsnittet av Brottsutredarna med reporter Fanny Hedenmo och tidigare kriminalkommissarie Bosse Åström, får du höra om ett underrapporterat brott – telefonbedrägerier, eller vishing – som för ovanlighetens skull kunde klaras upp av polis.

What do Ponzi schemes, emotional spending, and IKEA shopping trips have in common? More than you think. In this Talkin' Money Unfiltered conversation, I sit down with financial therapist Rachel Duncan to explore the wild history of Charles Ponzi, why scams like Bernie Madoff's still happen today, and how “easy money” myths lure even the savviest investors. We also get personal about the emotional side of money—FOMO spending, consumerism as a hobby, and why it feels so intimate (and brave) to finally talk about money with friends. You'll walk away learning: Why Ponzi schemes are built on trust, community ties, and the promise of high returns Red flags to watch for when evaluating an investment opportunity How FOMO spending silently taxes your wallet and relationships Why patience—not quick wins—is the real path to financial security How talking openly about money can actually deepen friendships and relieve financial shame Listen to the podcasts we talked about: Easy Money: The Charles Ponzi Story Debt Heads Whether you've ever wondered how smart people get caught in scams, or you just want to feel less alone about your own money choices, this episode is a must-listen.

The sisters kick things off with an update on Courtney's new house and her adventures in DIY furniture building. From proudly assembling a credenza and nightstand to a late-night dresser disaster that left an IKEA manager accusing her of “furniture abuse,” Courtney learns the hard way when to pick up the power drill—and when to put it down in favor of rosé. With her walls still bare, Courtney sets her sights on Daddy Ashley's art collection, but his non-committal response sparks a new sisterly scheme: pitching him on turning her home into a gallery where guests can buy the art right off the walls. Courtney also shares the emotional reveal of Vivi's “dream room,” the teenage dance crew already taking over the podcast studio, and the satisfaction of settling into a space that finally feels like home. Meanwhile, Whitney has been jet-setting to New York. She dishes on a wedding weekend, an unforgettable dinner at Israeli hotspot Shmoné, and a surprise run-in with Hey Sis alum Chef Lior, better known as The Spice King. From there, she takes us inside The Room Women's Summit NYC “room-union” lunch, where a six-hour feast somehow included recipes for hiding the taste of magic mushrooms. Whitney wraps with one last New York story: a rain-soaked martini meet-cute that led to the planning of the very first “Panty Dropper Dinner Party.” Hit play and get ready for an episode best served with a Dirty Sis Martini!

Cody and Jay are back with another uproarious recap of the "America's Got Talent" quarterfinals! This time, they dive into the world of fantasy drafts, questionable song choices, and the art of playing a trumpet—sort of. From debating whether a contestant's performance was more Vegas-worthy or just a karaoke night mishap, to discussing the merits of IKEA furniture and the perfect scrub brush, these two leave no stone unturned. And of course, they remind us all that sometimes, the best way to win over the judges is to bring a little extra flair—leopard print leg warmers, anyone?

Jest w projektach szwedzkiego designera dziwna magia, którą wielu nazywa po prostu dopaminą. To świat wnętrz, w których kolory eksplodują, a formy szaleją. Jego projekty wydają się przerysowane, ale jednocześnie estetyczne, zabawne i niezwykle fotogeniczne. Jesienią obiekty Westmana opanują sklepy IKEA, ale najpierw odbędzie się prezentacja kolekcji zaplanowana na 9 września.   Autorka: Barbara Siemianowska-Aniol Artykuł przeczytasz pod linkiem: https://www.vogue.pl/a/kim-jest-uwielbiany-przez-gen-z-projektant-gustaf-westman

This week on The Vergecast, the co-founder and former CEO of iRobot, Colin Angle, joins The Verge's smart home reviewer, Jennifer Pattison Tuohy, to discuss what the ideal home robot is. Are we close to creating a Rosie the Robot — an all-in-one humanoid robot that can take care of our homes, or should we take an entirely different approach to home robotics? They dive into the advances in technology powering this shift and ponder what purpose robotics in the home should really serve. Then, Jen takes a journey back into smart home history to help us understand its future. Grant Erickson, Principal of Nuovations, a former Apple, Nest, and Google engineer who was part of the team that developed Thread, joins the show. He shares the story of how and why, back in 2011, the Nest team, led by Tony Faddell and Matt Rogers, decided to create a smart home protocol. It involves a thermostat, fragmented ecosystems, and one of the best smart home products ever made. They discuss how Thread became the foundation of the Matter smart home standard — an unprecedented industry collaboration with a herculean task — to make the smart home simpler. To close out the show, Grant sticks around to help answer a Vergecast hotline question (call 866-VERGE11 or email vergecast@theverge.com) about how Matter manages your data.

 This week we are on the run from long-dead friends while we discuss “This”! We're talking the return of Cyber Langly, the Boo Crew suddenly turning into action stars, how we really could have used more of Mulder and Scully handcuffed-together hijinks, Skinner's boring apartment, and how much Deep Throat hates QR codes. We pitch a ‘Mulder and Scully go to IKEA' episode, enjoy the escape room vibes, think the episode would be improved with a dance battle, and wonder where exactly Langly's secret girlfriend was this entire time.

Hey Y'all! Whitney and Courtney are back at it with another Sister's Dish Summer addition of Hey Sis, Eat This, talking about Courtney's big move into her first solo place post-divorce—and actually, her FIRST solo place EVER! The sisters unpack (no pun intended) this monumental milestone in Courtney's life and reflect on how the time together reminded them of the days when they were roommates moving into their first Los Angeles apartment. Courtney is not shy about professing her gratitude for Whitney's superhero effort in taking charge of the move—doing everything from making G-sheets, assembling furniture, ordering power tools, and setting up TVs. Whitney then revealed herself as the MacGyver of home improvement, proudly using AI to help with IKEA furniture assembly, much to Courtney's surprise when she discovered her sister's hidden talent for furniture building. The girls also dish on their three-day cheese binge, including a raclette extravaganza at their new favorite local spot, Kutsaa, and share a hilarious story about Courtney overdosing on magnesium that had her questioning everything. This episode is all about celebrating growth, sisterhood, and all the funny, messy moments that make life sweet. Tune in for laughs, love, and a reminder that no matter what milestone you're facing, you've got a sister right there with you. Let's get into it!

Buscar lo rápido, fácil y barato nos aleja de lo que da verdadero valor: el esfuerzo. Como el “efecto Ikea”, 2/3 de la satisfacción vienen del proceso. Ni el arte, ni el amor, ni el cuerpo se construyen con atajos. En un mundo acelerado por máquinas, frenar se vuelve un acto de resistencia y sentido.

This week on The Vergecast, we enter the Jen-era of Hot Girl Vergecast Summer, with a deep dive into the business of the smart home. The Verge's smart home reviewer, Jennifer Pattison Tuohy (aka Jen), chats with Ken Fairbanks, a longtime customer of Insteon who ended up buying the smart lighting company when it went into bankruptcy. Ken shares the story of how one of the original smart lighting protocols, founded in the post-X10 era when home automation moved from wired to wireless, floundered, and how he and a band of users brought it back from the dead. He dishes what he's learned about how to keep the lights on — from customer loyalty and the value of subscriptions, to what tariffs are doing to the industry and how some hardware companies are just pyramid schemes. Then, in a special supersized (and we mean SUPER) Vergecast Hotline (call 866-VERGE11 or email vergecast@theverge.com), Jen is joined by smart home expert Richard Gunther, co-host of The Smart Home Show, to tackle a bunch of your burning smart lighting questions. They answer everything from how to move your smart home to which Thread border router you should buy for your Matter setup. Plus, they run down their own smart lighting set-ups.
