The retail industry has undergone a significant transformation as consumer purchasing behavior continues to shift toward e-commerce, digital transactions, and omnichannel shopping experiences. Online stores, mobile apps, social commerce, and digital marketplaces now play a central role alongside physical retail locations, reshaping how brands engage customers and drive revenue.
