2018 Holiday Shopping Season Trend Predictions for Retailers
“This holiday shopping season is going to be a game-changer,” stated Lori A. Torres, CEO of Parcel Pending. “We know that consumers are financially confident right now and this will translate into increased spending this holiday season. Additionally, I think we are going to see a significant boost in mobile shopping, which set a new record last year representing 33.1 percent of total retail revenue. With more consumers shopping online, retailers need to be poised and ready to deliver a phenomenal omnichannel experience and that is where our BOPIL solutions come into play.”
Parcel Pending is a leading provider of buy online, pick up in locker (BOPIL) solutions designed to simplify the BOPIS (Buy Online Pickup in Store) and BORIS (Return in Store) processes. The way it works is simple. Once an online retail order is fulfilled - be it groceries, clothing, electronics, cosmetics and more - the items are placed into one of the Parcel Pending lockers located at the retail store. Customers are then instantly notified by text or email and provided with a unique numerical code that they can type or scan at the locker kiosk. They can then quickly and easily pick up their order at their convenience by going to the retail store and simply entering their personal code into the locker.
