Challenges on the Horizon

The digital economy is putting pressure on traditional retailers, while offering infinite new opportunities

Leading retailers use market dynamics to create and capture new business opportunities

Consumers are prepared to share their data, yet expect new types of shopping experiences in return. Retailers that can leverage consumer insights to offer targeted, differentiating experiences, grow consumer share of wallet, and gain market share.

Consumers are no longer loyal to a retail brand and will switch for better service and faster delivery. Retailers that run an efficient and flexible supply chain from suppliers to homes and offer convenience and reliability will outperform their competition.

New competitors and innovative business models are continually emerging and capturing market share. Retailers that can integrate manufacturing and wholesale into an end-to-end value chain stay close to the consumer, gain control over value creation, and expand their market position.

Digital technology is connecting things, consumers, and enterprises. Retailers that use digital technologies to create new value for consumers through better products and services, better in-store experiences, and better connectivity to consumers remove friction along the value chain.
