Retail
Sophisticated consumers set the agenda
Digitalisation and transparency are two clear trends currently influencing many sectors, including the retail market.
The stiff competition between retail and e-trading means that physical shops increasingly need to become more efficient and attractive to customers. Self-scanning is one way to do so and is currently being adapted to create staff and checkout free shops. Customers and goods are filmed and a direct digital payment is made on leaving the shop. Such shops are already being tested and will soon be a matter of course.
Today's sophisticated customers are asking for sustainable products and transparent solutions. Customers want to know what they are buying, how the product is manufactured, the logistics flow up to the shop and everything in between. This makes for high demands on traceability and openness with regard to the customer.
