Consumers are regularly evolving their shopping habits as they are exposed to technological advances. In this century, drastic shifts in consumer behavior occurred at retail after the financial crisis of 2008 and the covid pandemic of 2020. Retailers who look to technology to meet consumers where they are shopping—online, at home or price-checking on their phones—are more likely to attract these omnichannel consumers and retain their loyalty.
