Canadian Grocer is excited to announce DoorDash Canada general manager Kyra Huntington as the newest addition to the GroceryConnex speaker lineup.

On the heels of DoorDash’s buzzy Instacart acquisition, Huntington will unpack consumer trends in her presentation, “What On-Demand Delivery Uncovers About the Modern Grocery Shopper.”

Huntington will share bite-sized insights about unique third-party ordering habits, highlight how to stand out on digital marketplaces and look at what shopping occasions may define the year ahead. Attendees will leave with at least one surprising insight and a clear next step for refining their own online strategy.

Taking place Nov. 23 at The Fairmont Royal York in Toronto, Canadian Grocer's GroceryConnex will bring together retailers and manufacturers to learn and explore innovative solutions that will shape the future of grocery.   

Attendees will also hear from Douglas Porter, chief economist at BMO Capital Markets, and Carman Allison, vice-president of industry insights for NIQ Canada, as well as:
