that make retail
more human
There are things that online shopping cannot
really do for shoppers - and that is the human
experience. In the future, physical retail will be
mainly about the human interactions enhanced
by perceptive technologies.

Retail will be revolutionized with computer
visioning and natural linguistics. Facial
recognition keeps track of shoppers and their
orders. Facial recognition brings up the shoppers
order or registered users are remembered
quickly at the check-out. Everything within
pleasant, seamless and interactive environments.

Aipoly
Aipoly could replace retail employees in the
future. Upon entering the store, customers
are identified and registered by face scanning
of cameras, image recognition systems and
artificial intelligence and all their actions up
to check-out are classified accordingly. If
customers have problems finding a product,
they are navigated from the app to the product.
If a product is not available in store, it can be
requested via the app.

Redefined Role and Purpose

Physical retail will
no longer be a
channel for buying
With customers now having unlimited shopping
options, retailers are making their shops offering
the whole journey with ‘sampling’ of products
combined with extraordinary brand experiences
often infused with technology that enables
interactivity & immersion. The future is show-
rooming.

Shoppers often make their choices in physical
stores, but buy online. Retailers should stop to
expect customers to walk out with a bag full of
products from the store, but rather design the
customer journeys so that customers naturally
visit and order online afterwards - hassle free.

New Economic Model

The economic model
for retail will implode
This is because the wholesale-to-retail model
is coming to its end. Brands are breaking the
traditional boundaries of wholesale distribution
on a large scale, simply because they can and
because it just makes sense from a business
perspective.

This will put retailers in a position where the
brands they call “vendors” are also competitors
for the same shopper. This sets up an
unstoppable situation that private labelling can
only partially substitute. The economic model for
retail requires a complete reimagining beyond
product sales towards new and recurring revenue
streams.

Broader Ecosystem

put your retail channel
into a broader ecosystem
The role and purpose of retail space will no
longer exclusively be to sell products or services.
Rather, these spaces will act as living and
breathing physical portals into brand and product
experiences. Retail will become places we go
to learn, be inspired, see and tray new things,
experiment and co-create.

The way these spaces are planned, built,
staffed, managed and measured, will look and
act nothing like the retail operations of today.
By continuing to keep a pulse on the latest
innovations in technology, we can better prepare
retail for the future of life in the digital age by
breaking traditional thinking patterns towards a
retail ecosystem thinking.

TaoCafe
Using technology in social context. Alibaba
opened a concept café where customers can pay
by facial recognition, meaning no queuing for the
cashier. When a customer requests their order
at Alibaba’s new café, instead of then queuing to
pay, their face is simply scanned by the screen at
the counter or as they walk through a one-meter
long scanner, and the price of their purchase is
instantly deducted from their Alipay account.
Clerks still prepare the food and drinks, but
payment is done completed digitally.
