IoT in Retail & Ecommerce

U.S. e-commerce growth has regularly outpaced the total retail market over the past six years, and e-commerce made up 8.1% of the total retail market in Q2 2016, up from 6.4% two years earlier. But even with this growth, there is still plenty of room for aggressive expansion, and the Internet of Things (IoT) can take e-commerce to the next level. Those who are involved in the retail and e-commerce industries must stay on top of this trend in order to stay ahead of the competition. The IoT has already started working its way into retail stores, and technologies will continue to disrupt the traditional retail process in the coming years.
