Grocery consumer behavior has permanently changed due to the global pandemic. The changes and disruptions to to daily life has seen more consumers turning to online channels, many times to be frustrated by poor user experiences. The opportunity to prepare for a post-pandemic world is now. Our digital commerce strategists can help you provide an experience customers expect in a way that provides a scalable and profitable digital commerce platform ready for what comes next.
Digital commerce strategy for retail grocers has to take into account the seismic shift in demand that the pandemic has brought to online grocery. What was once seen as a niche service for the well-to-do, is now a part of everyday life for tens of millions of people. A strong online strategy that involves mobile capabilities, online ordering for pick up and delivery, a broader selection of items via a marketplace, and in-store local tie-ins should be on the priority list for all retail grocers.
Legacy ecommerce technology can be a barrier to innovation and grocers cannot afford to be limited in today's hyper-competitive landscape. The goal for a modern retail commerce architecture should consist of a stable, reliable, yet flexible commerce foundation where best-of-breed solutions can be implemented at every key position in the stack. This approach will allow grocers to keep up with the modern consumer demands and seemingly endless feature augmentations.
