Geography　　　　　　North America

North American Retail started out like gangbusters in 2020, with the first two months showing a 6.4% gain over the same period a year before. But then COVID happened, and the entire landscape changed seemingly overnight. At the time of this writing, retail sales are up 2.2% through November, but the contributors to that growth look very different from the beginning of the year. What does that mean for 2021?

In this collaborative study with RIS News you will gain insight into what some of the more successful retailers have been doing to pivot their businesses during trying times. Have the new customer journeys been a rousing success, from the standpoint of customer satisfaction and also profitability? How are retailers dealing with heretofore unrealized customer demands? What technologies are Leaders looking to adopt? What types of retails struggled to survive, never mind thrive? How is BOPIS driving store investment?  How many are not only growing stores but growing the sales in those stores vs those who are simply accepting a lower sales per store?  What about ecommerce growth, how much of this is expected to be desktop vs mobile?  And finally, which new initiatives such as Edge Computing, SD-WAN, Microservices Architecture, IoT, Store-level 5G, and Dark Stores / Dark Kitchens are seeing growth in investment vs. declines?

With responses from over 160 top retail brands in North America, we have produced the results in a detailed, but very easy to read study. You also get the raw data to do your own analysis by segment.

The report is designed for use by Retailers, Hardware Providers, Software Providers, Service Providers and others who might have a vested interest in the North American retail market. The complete outline with chart titles is below.

FAQS

Is this a comprehensive view of the marketplace?

No, this is a survey of more than 160 retailers with stores in all retail segments and their purchase intentions. While a full market overview would include everyone, this is just the answers of those that responded to the survey. Caution should be used in extrapolating these results to the entire market.For some comprehensive market research on store automation technologies, you should Click Here.

Did this survey cover larger or smaller retailers?

Actually both. Roughly 45% of the respondents were retailers over $1 Billion. Another 10% were retailers over $500 Million but less than $1 Billion. The remaining retailers were under $500 Million in annual sales. The data is broken down by retailer size so you can see the differences.

Can I share this study in my company?

Yes if you have an enterprise license. See below for more.

Can I share this study with partners and clients?

Not in entirety unless you have negotiated a distribution license with IHL. Basically we don’t want the study going to partners and clients who should otherwise purchase a license. This is what we do for a living, and if people violate this we can no longer do the research. Contact us at ihl(at)ihlservices.com with any questions.

Can I quote this study in my presentations and press releases?

In most cases this is fine but we ask that you run it by us first at ihl(at)ihlservices.com. Typically things shared in percentages (ie. this is 20% increase) then that is fine. Items in raw $$$ or units typically we will not allow to share. But we can work with you on this. We realize that you buy the research to use, so we can usually find a nice compromise that protects our IP and meets your needs.

Can I get access to the analysts who wrote or partnered in the study?

Yes, one of the core differentiators of IHL Research Studies is that included in part of the price is up to 1 hour with the analyst to ask follow-up questions or dig further into any assumptions. This does not extend to getting more data, just better insight into how we arrived at the data and came to the conclusions from that data.

Pricing

License Options

Single User License – a lower priced license that is designed for use for a single user, not to be shared internal with other users or externally to partner, customers or other parties.

Enterprise License – a license that allows for the research to be accessed and shared internally with anyone else within the organization and wholly owned subsidiaries.

IHL Group License and Fair Use Agreement

All of IHL Group’s generally available research are electronic licenses and are limited by the license type chosen for purchase.  For Single User Licenses this means that the person buying the research is the only person to use the research.

For Enterprise Licenses, these can be shared freely within the company. We only ask that this information not be shared with partners or others outside the purchasing company without authorization from IHL Group. The license does not extend to joint ventures or other partnerships. If the relationship is not a wholly-owned subsidiary, then both parties would need a license.

Practically, this implies the following:

1. The purchasing company can use the data and research worldwide internally as long as the international organizations are wholly owned subsidiaries of the purchasing company.

2. The data or any research cannot be distributed in whole or in part to partners or customers without express written approval from IHL Group.

3. The purchasing company may quote components of the data (limited use) in presentations to customers such as specific charts. This is limited to percentage components, not individual unit information. Unit data cannot be shared externally without express written approval from IHL Group. All references to the data in presentations should include credit to IHL Group for the data.

4. The purchasing company can reference qualitative quotes in printed material with written approval from IHL Group.

5. All requests requiring written approval should be submitted to ihl(at)ihlservices.com and will be reviewed within one business day.

For Distributed Licenses, if applicable, the research can be shared with prospective customers and potential institutional investors.  It cannot be shared with partners or other vendors who should be purchasing their own licenses.
