Future of Work in Retail and Apparel - Thematic Intelligence

Summary

The COVID-19 pandemic gave businesses an unprecedented opportunity to implement profound changes to the way we work. From digitizing processes and re-shaping supply chains to redesigning offices, the pandemic will leave a lasting legacy.

Key Highlights

The nature of employment will change, with more hybrid work between offices and remote working. This will shape what consumers purchase and where they purchase items, with reverse urbanization changing the locations of consumption.

The future of retail delivery presents further opportunities for employment and lifestyle changes. To reduce the disproportionately high costs of the last mile, retailers are starting to deploy autonomous vehicles and drones to deliver packages. Automation in the final part of the supply chain will decrease transport costs, though potentially lead to human couriers becoming redundant at some point in the future - though this seems a long way off currently.
