Chicago, December 11, 2019 - Bringg, the leading Delivery Orchestration Platform, announced today the release of the Bringg Barometer 2020 State of Retail Report. The report pairs original survey data of over 1,000 customers collected in cooperation with Google Surveys and compares it with an extensive evaluation of the delivery offerings of 50 top US retailers. Based on data from the last quarter of 2019, it sheds light on the gap between consumer expectations and retailers offerings, and how retailers can meet and exceed them in the future

Key Findings Include:

To shoppers, speed and convenience (41%) are now almost as important as free delivery (56%)

5+ day delivery is unacceptable to 76% of shoppers, yet 1 in 5 retailers list this as their default option.

Only 11% of shoppers start directly on a retail site. 53% of shoppers start their online shopping journeys with Amazon, while 22% start on Google.

60% of retail deliveries fail to meet customer expectations for speed


While retailers continue to struggle to meet customer expectations, 2020 offers a bright future to those who make the strategic investments necessary to adapt. While offerings such as free standard shipping are now more a matter of survival than a differentiator, leveraging retail inventory for faster, well-priced local delivery can set retailers apart. Closing this gap will set retailers apart and pave the way for greater competitiveness and market share.

"Our report reflects what we've been seeing in the field for some time. Retailers and delivery providers that are connecting, digitizing and optimizing their supply chains are able to offer better delivery experiences." said Guy Bloch, CEO of Bringg. "The imperative is clear. Retailers that address the gap between their delivery offerings and customer expectations in 2020 will enjoy stronger revenues, customer loyalty and sustainable growth."

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.

How green is your glue?

If you’re looking to make the packaging process more eco-friendly, the obvious place to start is with the box itself. And that’s exactly what Salt Lake City-based Packsize did when it made its initial foray into sustainable packaging back in 2002. That year, the company launched its first product, an innovative on-demand packaging system designed to reduce cardboard waste (and the need for filler material) by creating a right-sized box for each shipment.

Now the company is ready for the next step: greening up the glue.
