HCL’s Commerce in a Box to help retailers sail through their Omnichannel journey

Must Read

Reports suggest India is one of the fastest growing e-commerce markets in the Asia-Pacific region, growing at a CAGR of 57 per cent. As per a report by Forrester, India’s retail market is estimated to grow to US $850 billion by 2020 at a CAGR of 10 per cent.
2016 was the year of online shopping. According to the Annual Global Cross-Border Consumer Research 2016 report, Indian online shoppers spent Rs 58,370 crore on shopping in 2016. Online shopping was also up by a whopping 83 per cent last year. By 2020, it is estimated that $100 billion will be generated from online retail revenue. From this, $35 billion will come from fashion e-commerce.
2016 was also the year when retailers realized that there has been a massive power switch – from shop owner to consumer.
A Deloitte study titled ‘Connecting with the Connected Consumer’ says: The supply-driven world has become a demand-driven world where the consumer is in charge. Today’s consumers are not only critics and curators, but, increasingly, creators. Yesterday’s consumer purchased from a limited set of offerings, and the communication was one-way, under complete control of marketing and advertising agencies. Today, individual consumers can start with an idea, a need, or an inspiration and browse online to find what they want, and, if they can’t find it, create it themselves by working with companies that provide this capability. Today, the consumer is in charge.
The need to deliver exceptional customer experience has become more important than ever.
