It will also support the retailer with market insights for customer targeting.

Accenture estimated that the proportion of online purchases for products such as fashion, home décor, and luxury goods by previously infrequent e-commerce users has increased 667% since the covid outbreak in India.
“The retail industry needs to constantly reset so it can stay relevant in the face of changing shopper expectations, and create experiences that engage and delight,” said Sameer Amte, managing director at Accenture, who leads its retail practice in India.
