Powered by
All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
It details the current issues retailers face and how technology has changed the retail model from supply, to demand led and created a far more costly and complex retail sector. A new retail model is emerging – platform retail – where online and offline merge and use customer data and technology to understand how we now consume and what products and services we require.
It highlights how mature Western retailers are adapting and changing their businesses and new entrants are expanding beyond their core, online businesses, and partnering with physical retailers to adapt to changing consumer demand and lifestyles.
It summarises the issues, the trends and the opportunities there are for retailers to adapt their businesses to cope with these issues.
This report outlines the common issues facing retailers globally and how they are reacting as they face a retail landscape that is changing constantly and rapidly and becoming completely unrecognisable from the traditional model that evolved over centuries.
