%X Works conducted in logistics management mostly emphasize the importance of a `time                compression' strategy to develop a sustainable competitive advantage. At the level                of the design, manufacturing or distribution of products to consumers, high-speed                orientation is now considered to be a universal source of performance. Drawing from                current developments in the French food retailing industry, the paper points to a                possible alternative path based on `slowness' logistics. This new time orientation                is set in a context of the `theatricalization of low prices' adopted by an                increasing number of large retailers.
