With 2019 in the rearview mirror and retail’s busiest season behind us I thought it would be an opportune time to reflect on the future of Brick & Mortar shops. We read about the retail apocalypse and yet unique independent shops still continue to open. See the 2019 Best New Shops here. Are we consuming more conscientiously? And what does that actually mean? We buy less? We buy local? Is buying local just a privilege of the wealthy? Do we buy better so things last longer? Or do we still just love consuming the latest trends at whatever cost (to the environment not our pockets!). These and so many questions I would love your answers and comments on. So please comment here
In November 2018 we first asked for your comments on The Future of Brick & Mortar shops – see your responses here. Have your opinions changed? We will share the latest survey results next month.
