The Digital Commerce Daily — May 22, 2026

The Digital Commerce Daily — May 22, 2026 Your 8-minute briefing on ecommerce, social commerce, and digital marketing. In today's episode: • UK retail media spend is rising but measurement chaos and internal turf wars are preventing brands from unlocking its full upper-funnel potential. • German premium fashion retailer Breuninger is pushing into three new European markets, signalling that mid-to-luxury ecommerce expansion in Europe is back on the agenda. • Just Eat Takeaway is the first European platform to enable food ordering directly through WhatsApp, turning Meta's messaging app into a live commerce channel in two key markets. Fun fact: Amazon's search bar processes more product searches than Google does — and roughly 56% of U.S. consumers now start their product search directly on Amazon rather than a search engine. That means Google, despite owning the broader internet search market, has effectively lost the product discovery battle to a retailer. Hosted by Marco and Klara.
