The retail industry is currently experiencing a rapid transformation, driven by changing consumer habits, technological advancements, and the rise of e-commerce. This evolution is reshaping how retailers operate, interact with customers, and compete in the marketplace.
Reports suggest that e-commerce is undeniably on the rise as a retail channel, with estimates indicating that 21% of retail sales will be conducted online by 2024. This has compelled even traditional brick-and-mortar retailers to adapt and innovate. Many retailers are now embracing omnichannel strategies that integrate their online and offline channels. This allows customers to seamlessly shop across multiple channels, whether it be online, in-store, or on mobile devices.
