The retail marketplace in America is changing in profound ways. Explosive store growth, technological advances, shifting demographics, and unpredictable consumers are all contributing to this transformation. Add fierce competition from the nation's retail giants, and it's clear why retailing in the future promises to be more challenging than ever.

If only we had a crystal ball to see into the future. But there are no crystal balls. Instead retailers and consumer products manufacturers must pay attention to the current trends that will help them gain insight into consumers, the marketplace, and how these things will affect the retail environment of the future.

Retail and consumer trends addressed in this presentation:

  • Will big-box retailers dominate the marketplace of the future?
  • Multi-channel retailing and how it is redefining the distribution model
  • Why the customer's shopping experience is more important than ever
  • How store "shoppability" will become a defining difference
  • The new European invasion and its effect on the fashion business
  • Aging Baby Boomers and their continuing impact on the consumer marketplace
  • The increasing power and influence of ethnic populations
  • Young consumers: Shaping the future of retailing...and more

During these chaotic times, savvy merchants must pay attention to the trends that will shape their future. In this insight-packed keynote, retailers and consumer products manufacturers will learn to identify and capitalize on the changes destined to impact their businesses over the next five to ten years.
