Retail solicitors in London and Essex
During the Covid-19 pandemic, the retail sector suffered a damaging blow with thousands of shops disappearing from high-streets across the UK. Retail businesses have had to adapt quickly with many finding online alternatives to keep their businesses afloat. Retail businesses that operated online before the pandemic saw a surge in sales as consumers flowed to online shopping.
However, whether retail businesses operate solely online, on the high-street or a mixture of both, business owners will face similar challenges in the form of high customer demands, recruiting and upskilling its workforce, keeping up with technological advances and maintaining brand loyalty.
