This list of retail trends for June 2023 highlights tech-driven customer service, innovative packaging solutions, and speedy deliveries. In order to capture the attention of tech-influenced consumers, brands are attempting to provide unique in-person experiences to stand apart from others in the market.
To elevate its customer experience and meal serving times, sweetgreen has launched a new 'Infinite Kitchen' that focuses on providing consumers with a quick experience using robots. Visitors to the automated restaurant may place their orders and have their food prepared by a salad-making robot at a test location in Naperville, Illinois.
In the clothing space, The Stock Market by Selfridges, a venue for consumers to trade, repair, or upcycle apparel and accessories, is now operational in the upscale department store's London site. The trading floor, where everything happens, also doubles as the Corner Shop.
