Preparing For The COVID-19 Impact on Ecommerce

Concerns over COVID-19 are spreading into every factor of life, and the retail industry is one of the biggest to take a hit, especially in China. However, ecommerce operations may be getting an unexpected boost and the same people that are avoiding retail stores and shopping centres are huddling inside to make their purchases online.

With the potential of a possible supply chain crisis, how can brands continue their operations and what can they do now to prepare?

How Your Business Can Still Thrive

If you’re an online seller who also operates a retail store, consider offering free local pickup.

This can prevent large amounts of customers from walking around your retail store, interacting with each other and touching all your merchandise, while also satisfying customers who want their product the same day (and saving on shipping costs) by offering them the ability to show up and grab their online purchase quickly without having to be around groups of people for significant periods of time inside stores.

Kyozou fully supports in-store pickup orders and this can be enabled through your control panel by following the article here.
