Five Retail Trends to Monitor in 2021 and Beyond

A recent survey from a global retail giant titled “The State of the Consumer, Retail & FSOP Report” compiled insights from various studies to look at how the retail industry has changed since the pandemic last March.

The five major trends include:

At Home Moments
More consumers are expected to continue living, work, and hanging out at home than before the pandemic.

Comfort and Indulgence
60% of consumers are buying self-care items, while 56% currently spend on treats for themselves and their families.

Digital Commerce
90% of consumers plan to spend on food online even after the pandemic

Value Redefined
The pandemic increased mindful spending, supporting impacted workers, and social issues.

Focus on Health
Even after the pandemic, hygiene as a safety concern will impact consumer spending habits.

As consumer behavior continues to adapt due to the pandemic, how can you help tailor your message to meet the changing needs of your target customer?
