About this Report

About this Report

In 2012 and in the short term, the retailing industry is likely to be driven by the continuing poor global economic outlook and its effect on consumer spending, the shift of growth to emerging markets and the transfer of an increasing number of purchases to the internet. 2011 saw a continuation of some of these trends, but the opening up of new markets, the emergence of m-commerce and rising penetration rates for smartphones are likely to make a number of these issues more important in future.
