From Sensory Retail Pods to Produce Butcher Grocery Concepts
Jana Pijak — January 27, 2018 — Business
These 2017 retail innovations range from sensory retail pods to produce butcher grocery concepts. When it comes to physical, brick-and-mortar stores, authenticity and sensory marketing are becoming top priorities for both emerging and established brands.
Standouts in the realm of experiential retail include IKEA's immersive Play Café pop-up which opened in the heart of downtown Toronto earlier this year. The pop-up was home to exclusive kitchen accessories, served up a menu of IKEA restaurant favorites, and even featured a set of interactive gaming stations where visitors where given a chance to win exclusive offers and prizes.
NYC boutique 'Package Free' is another standout which prides itself on its artisanal products and waste-free approach to retail -- one that features absolutely no packaging.
When it comes to notable e-commerce examples, standouts include virtual try-on services, and couture web shop debuts like a new Givenchy platform which combines premium products with real-time access to fashion week content.
