Although brick-and-mortar remains a primary revenue driver for most (85%), nearly two-thirds admit they cannot fully meet shifting consumer demands, particularly as hyper-informed customers and streamlined eCommerce options raise competition.

On a positive note, many retailers are allocating resources toward mobile solutions and assisted selling technologies, with 70% planning such investments in the next year and a half.
