Japan’s Fashion E-Commerce Evolving into Dynamic and Seamless Omnichannel, Winners Will Take All
- After the accelerated transition to digital channels during Covid, the fashion sector had a calmer year in 2022 although GTVs still grew around 10%.
- Most retailers spent the time investing in more seamless and coherent omnichannel models, and in making the best use of stores and staff in online promotions.
- This shift to omnichannel is also leading to changing merchandising, including pre-selling inventory, while others are turning their online stores into malls.
