The Retail Optimiser celebrates its fifth birthday

Frankfurt, 18 June 2025.

Exactly five years ago, The Retail Optimiser published its very first news. Right from the start, the team behind the new online trade publication has received high praise from retail technology decision-makers across Europe: Relevant topics, no paywall, 100% bilingual (German – English), exclusive news even on unpleasant developments, easy to read on mobile devices.

Five years later, five editors are working hard to provide the industry with news and reports from the fields of technology, store design, and logistics that are really important to retailers from Aldi to Żabka.

The agency Fourspot, which publishes The Retail Optimiser, sincerely thanks all the many technology providers and shopfitters who have made the success of The Retail Optimiser possible, above all: 4POS, Advantec, Aiperia, Aptos, Bayard, Bizerba, CAS AG, Citizen, Comarch, Diebold Nixdorf, Gebit, Geck, GK, Glory, Hanshow, Manhattan, Mercio, Newland, OneStock, Pentland Firth, POS Tuning, Pyramid, Quinyx, Relex, Retail Insight, Shopgate, Shopreme, Star Micronics, Casafari, Toshiba, Vivid Tech, VusionGroup, and Zebra Technologies.

The Retail Optimiser team also extends its special thanks to EHI Retail Institute, IGD and GS1 Germany, which continuously support the editorial team with insights and expert opinions.
