99% of 10,000 years of retail history has centered around Bricks & Mortar. It still is and also will.

Yet, we still do not know what’s happening in B&M (NuRetail is also a retail company who can manifest that).

The most disruptive retail innovation in the past there decades was eCommerce. Its innovativeness is not only that you can order anything in your hand 24/7 and get it delivered to your home, but also that it enabled retail to gain back once lost customer insights and tailor its services to individual customers.

NuRetail Data wants this superb capability of eCommerce applied to B&M. And by doing so, NuRetail would like to take B&M to another level. Please look forward to the journey to explore new retail frontier together.

NuRetail Tech

Majority of retail innovations in the past 3 decades occurred in the area of eCommerce. There are reasons behind this. First of all, eCommerce innovations arrived by the innovators such as data scientists and digital experts outside the retail industry. To such, traditional retail in B&M that requires in-person customer assistance, product stocking, manual item ordering, etc. did not present a shiny big thing. Evidently, it appeared easier and more challenging for them to embark on a new journey in the digital only eCommerce environment.

More important is it is far easier for eCommerce to collect, handle, analyze and utilize data than B&M. Without data, innovations do not happen. In this regard, it was not difficult to understand why eCommerce grew fast inviting many other related products and services.

Meanwhile, innovations in B&M stay rather quiet, and investment trend continues to focus on eCommerce.

It’s been a long time since the omnichannel concept was proposed, positioning customer in the center, integrating all touch points and channels and offering the high quality seamless services. However, almost all new retail platforms invented in the past 3 decades were eCommerce platforms, and there is few true Omnichannel platforms available in the market today.

NuRetail Tech who knows retail operations in depth thinks it’s a great timing now to develop and offer Omnichannel products and services, knowing B&M remains as the main retail channel.

Japanese Retail Industry seeing a golden opportunity to break through 30-years long stagnancy

Japanese Retail Industry has been said “Overstored” vs. the total consumption demand. Long-lasted deflationary  environment did not help, either. Retailers have been thrown into the endless and fierce low-price competition to win customers for the past 30 years.

As a result, Japanese Retail Industry has suffered from chronicle low profitability.

Low profitability kept retailers away from investing time and effort in innovation. Together with the fierce low-price competition, lack of innovation worsened the vicious cycle and stagnated the growth of the retail industry for a long, long time. Meanwhile, technology dramatically evolved.

5G networking has become the standard, and now, we are transitioning to 6G that smoothly streams full-scale films. Cloud computing is an industry de facto, allowing us to store and transfer huge amount of data stress-freely. Now all devices, sensors, robotics, etc. are becoming IoT, always connected to the Internet.

Such infrastructural environmental changes happened simultaneously and synergistically interacted with each other, leading us to the era of Artificial Intelligence replacing a lot of works formerly processed by humans.

As disruptive innovations keep springing up roaming around everyday, everywhere in the world, there are also uncountable number of retail industry specific technologies and technologies applicable to retail industry popping up. Altogether, they are called “Retail Tech.”

These latest Retail Techs often generate far better ROI (Return on Investment) in comparison to the past IT solutions and exhibit tremendous potential to boost retail companies’ growth. Yet, “how a company adopts which Retail Tech” remains a question.

For instance,

• How does Retail Tech cope with corporate issues such as the staff shortage or ERP upgrade?
• How can Retail Tech improve Enterprise Value of our company?
• How can Retail Tech get connected with our retail systems?
• Can our staffs utilize it?
• Who supports contracting, Japanizing, implementing, maintaining Retail Tech from overseas?
• Who helps us evaluate pros and cons across different Retail Tech products?
• How can we assure the continuity of the service from a Retail Tech startup once we implement?
• Can we book Retail Tech as our asset to the balance sheet even though it’s SaaS?

and many more questions, issues and constraints unique to each retail company to arise.

With in-depth understanding in such situations of each retail company in mind, the most appropriate Retail Tech can be rightly chosen and implemented to best support its business growth.

Who can make it happen for you? That’s your business partner, NuRetail Consulting.
