The digital transformation of retail brings about changes<\/h2>\n

    \nBrand storytelling has become outdated.
    \nIn times where distribution times are public on social networks, personalized communication is needed.
    \nAnd above all, online, with each customer. <\/li>\n
  5. Databases<\/strong>.
    \nHow to manage them will dictate decision making thanks to BIG DATA, the aforementioned AI and machine learning. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \nOne example is the Green Logistics seal. <\/li>\n
    3. Omnichannel<\/strong>.
      \nCompanies need to find ways to leverage all existing channels to sell when, where and how it is in the user’s interest.

      Unresolved logistical issues according to consumers<\/h2>\n
        \n
      • Speed.

        \nMost consumers demand same-day delivery as a standard. <\/li>\n
