Introduction

Advancements in smart retail solutions including different features such as sales reporting, sales analytics, and inventory management; POS including wireless mobile devices; and cloud computing enabling better customer interaction, are expected to drive the growth of the smart retail market during the forecast period.

This helps retailers to sell their wares at the right price, the right time to the customer almost every single time, and gain a competitive advantage in the market.

Lack of compliance on the part of IoT solution providers and integrators, and lack of user knowledge and awareness for smart retail, are the primary factors that would challenge the adoption of smart retail in the global market during the forecast period (2020 to 2030).

Development of RFID Technology to Improve Customer Experience and Sales Efficiency

Handheld RFID inventory management platforms will help improve customer experience, allow for quick and efficient restocking of merchandise, and increase sales. The implementation of RFID technology in retail markets to support the Omnichannel strategy caters to the changing shopping habits of customers.

RFID technology allows tracking missing products from the sales platform. An RFID inventory system increases inventory management efficiencies and provides deeper merchandise visibility.

RFID technology is also used for reducing costs and maintaining efficiencies at the right time when retailers are battling fiercely. By reducing out-of-stock and overstock scenarios, retailers can maximize product availability to help convert sales.

Technological Advancements Creating New Growth Opportunities

Continuously evolving new technologies such as smart communication technology, smart store technology, and AI facial recognition technology, in the retail industry, are driving the smart retail market.

Digital and online technologies are creating potential growth opportunities for smart retail, as these technologies improve communication between retailers and customers, as well as help retailers position their products and organize their processes and value chain.

For instance, in September 2019, the Ingenico Group announced a partnership with M&S, a major British multinational retailer company. Both companies work together to launch a new payment services that involve all M&S customer digital channels and touchpoints, which is critical to maintaining customer experience and sales goals.

Emerging Internet of Things (IoT) Technology Spurring Market Growth

Increasing adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technology for various applications, such as workforce skill alteration, smart retail automation, and connected retail services, is rapidly fueling the growth of the global smart retail market.

Internet of Things (IoT)-based smart retail products such as radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags are used for tracking systems to monitor and detect goods and control of inventory. These IoT-based products are also used for tracking product deliveries.

The adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) in smart retail offers different advantages, such as reduced time and effort, user-friendly, easy access of product information, and cost-efficiency. These factors are anticipated to contribute to the growth of the smart retail market over the coming years.
