David Ritter from A&M Consumer and Retail Group shares his thoughts on an article from Chris Walton, a major influencer and though leader in the retail space, published in late January.
In the article, Chris outlines how changes and innovation in retail are accelerating and converging around five core trends – Social Commerce, Third-party Delivery Marketplaces, Hyper-local Micro-fulfillment, BOPIS with an Indeterminate “S,” and Computer Vision. In my opinion, Chris’ article was a great summation of the biggest trends in retail 2021.
