KPS Global® announced today the addition of several individuals as the company prepares for the retirement of key leaders.

Lun Tsuei joined the organization as the Director of Research & Development. Leveraging his PH.D. from University of California, Berkeley and his MBA from the University of Texas, Lun is versed in lean manufacturing and disciplined in the R&D process. James Costanza will work with Tsuei to share his knowledge and expertise in the industry to ready him for success to innovate new, sustainable products. James has contributed several patents and innovations while at KPS Global and remains involved in the organization as a valuable asset.

Jason Edevold also joined KPS Global as Vice President of Sales. Jason will succeed John Guerrieri who will retire later this year. John has been with KPS Global since 2018 but has 40 years of experience in the Refrigeration Equipment and Retail Store Fixture industry. Before joining KPS Global, Jason served as the Vice President of Sales for Chain Accounts, at Post Consumer Brands.

Also joining the organization is Tom Herberg who has worked in manufacturing for 28 years in various capacities and has also been a Lean Practitioner for 22 years. Tom is joining KPS Global as Vice President of Operations replacing Steve Pearson. Steve has been a valued member of the KPS Global organization and known to many in the industry and while officially retiring in February, he continues to support the organization including Tom’s onboarding process to ensure a smooth transition.

“We’re excited to have these talented individuals on our team. They provide a seamless evolution of key senior leadership roles in the organization. On behalf of the Board of Directors and management team, we want to thank James Costanza, John Guerrieri and Steve Pearson for their leadership and impact over their career with the organization” said Mike Eakins, CEO of KPS Global.

Amazon's $5.7 billion store quarter is the small part of its retail push

Amazon's $5.7 billion store quarter is the small part of its retail push

Amazon reported $5.7 billion in physical store net sales in Q3 2026, up 2% year over year. Groceries and everyday essentials were about half of the units Amazon sold in Q3, a sign the grocery push is running mostly through delivery. For grocers, Amazon’s delivery-side footprint could matter more than the physical store line.

  • 01When Amazon's CEO talks about 'stores' with hundreds of billions in revenue and double-digit margins, that is the whole retail business; the physical-store line is about $5.7 billion a quarter.
  • 02Groceries and everyday essentials were about half of the units Amazon sold in Q3 while its physical stores grew 2%, a sign the grocery push is running mostly through delivery.
  • 03Growth multiples measured from Amazon's first physical-store quarter in 2017 start from roughly five weeks of Whole Foods sales, so they overstate like-for-like growth.

SAP and VF Corp's Walldorf store runs without staff during set hours

SAP and VF Corp's Walldorf store runs without staff during set hours

SAP and VF Corporation opened S.Fashion, a test store at SAP's Walldorf headquarters that runs with no staff during selected hours. Its core promise is operational: a sale updates inventory and can trigger replenishment without manual handoffs. That chain leans on item-level RFID data and robotics.

  • 01S.Fashion’s operational focus is the unglamorous part: a sale updates inventory and can trigger replenishment without a manual handoff between systems. Shopper-facing features like holographic try-on and an AI-assisted embroidery station sit alongside that back-end integration.
  • 02With nobody on the floor, the inventory record is the main witness an agent can act on. Vendor-supplied RFID benchmarks highlight how big the gap can be versus manual counting, so accuracy is the number to verify before automating restock decisions.
  • 03VF Corporation says it plans to scale what works across its brands. The first S.Fashion feature to show up in a The North Face, Vans or Timberland store will reveal which part held up.

Mizner Park sold to CP Group, Georgetown and ACRE partners

Mizner Park sold to CP Group, Georgetown and ACRE partners

CP Group, Georgetown and ACRE acquired Mizner Park, dividing leasing, management and renovation work across office, retail and apartments; the buildings sit on land under a ground lease running to 2088, and StepStone is involved via ACRE’s co-investment relationship.

  • 01Mizner Park work is split: CP Group and Georgetown manage office and retail, ACRE and ZRS handle apartments, and CBRE and Newmark lease office and retail.
  • 02The new owners hold the buildings while Boca Raton's Community Redevelopment Agency owns the land, on a ground lease running to 2088, and the long-term plan is being developed with the city.
  • 03East Boca retail asks about $40 a square foot at 4.5% vacancy, below West Palm Beach's urban core, which gives a refreshed tenant mix a clear rent benchmark to measure against.
