Survey 2 Results: The Impact Of COVID-19 On Retail And Ecommerce For Last Half Of March
CommerceNext continues our coverage of COVID-19’s impact on ecommerce and retail. We recently completed our second survey to ascertain the effects of the pandemic on digital retail business. The majority of questions remained the same as our first survey, which collected data from the first half of March, in order to benchmark results. While the data from the survey paints a very challenging environment for digital retail, it is uplifting to see that the category hit the hardest (apparel and accessories) is also the category adjusting their operations the most to help manufacture COVID-19 necessities (e.g., masks, face shields, hand sanitizer, etc.).
