Covid-19 pandemic pushes up average retail order size by over 50%

The Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted the retail sector in a big way — from pushing consumers towards placing larger orders to prohibiting them from window-shopping. 

Retail realty sector that was seeing a steady fall in inventory is again staring at a spike in vacancy rate, a report by Anarock & Retailers Association of India shows. 

Meanwhile, retailers are taking several measures to revive the business. The organised retail sector is banking on omni-channel strategy and grocery segment.
