From Grocery-Scanning Robots to One-Way Outdoor Markets
Grace Mahas — July 1, 2020 — Business
From grocery-scanning robots to one-way outdoor markets, the June 2020 retail ideas showcase how various businesses are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic.
A notable trend across the restaurant sector is the transition from dine-in and take-out services to grocery essential providers. Various restaurants have begun selling fresh produce, household staples, cleaning supplies, and even toilet paper to help meet the evolving consumer demands.
Moreover, the retail industry has also seen a drastic shift with the emergence of digital malls that curate a selection of online retailers based on geographical location to allow consumers to shop locally and interact with store workers virtually. These range from the high streets of London to entire virtual shopping cities in Dubai, among others.
As COVID-19 continues to change the business landscape, we can expect more retail pivots to accommodate the "new normal."
