Stor.ai Hires Charlie Ward Wright IV as President and Mendel Gniwisch is Promoted to CEO to Expand Leadership Team

Stor.ai, the end-to-end digital commerce solution for grocers, announced two additions to its leadership team with the appointments of Charlie Ward Wright IV as President and Mendel Gniwisch as CEO. Both Charlie Wright and Gniwisch bring a wealth of expertise and experience in the retail and ecommerce sectors and will underpin stor.ai’s rapid growth strategy.

Stor.ai was founded to assist grocers’ digital transformation needs by combining digital customer engagement across all touchpoints into one platform. Previously, online grocery shopping had developed separately from the in-store experience, resulting in a fractured shopping experience characterized by disparate digital touchpoints. From personalized e-commerce to optimized picking, stor.ai supports grocers seeking to evolve their customer experience while maintaining ownership of their data, brand, and customer loyalty in the new digital era.

Stor.ai will benefit from his acumen across various touchpoints within the retail industry, especially in these times when digital transformation is critical.
