Key Thematic Drivers in the Retail Industry M&A Deals
The key themes driving the M&A in the retail industry are premiumization & indulgence and e-commerce.
Premiumization & Indulgence
The luxury market weathered the storm of COVID and the rising cost of living surprisingly well. Fiscal stimulus and a strong stock market and individual household savings meant that spending in the US remained healthy. During COVID-19, those who would have spent money on dining and travel turned to spending on luxury goods. However, the recovery and spending have been uneven, depending on the health of individual markets. In this respect, M&A activity driven by the luxury market will be concentrated in areas such as the US.
Ecommerce
Despite lockdowns easing and more retail and entertainment centers reopening in most areas, many people continue to go online for their shopping needs. According to Forbes, e-commerce sales grew significantly between 2019 and 2022.
