Catering to the Post-Pandemic Retail Environment
From 15th June, all retailers will be able to re-open their stores. However, the nation has become increasingly reliant on online shopping, so how likely is it that the high street will have the same footfall that it had before lockdown?
The Current Situation
Data provided by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) shows that there has been an 18.1% decrease in retail sales since the start of COVID-19. In comparison, online shopping has seen a considerable increase, reaching a record high of 30.7% as a proportion for the entire retail sector.
According to the BBC, retailers now question whether consumers will have “the appetite” to go back to the high street.
As industries evolve and consumer buying behaviours change, it is crucial that you establish your online presence in order to generate success and influence sales.
