At its core, unified commerce responds to the disruptive shifts in retail by merging the front end and back end systems into a single platform. In other words, it merges the omnichannel and multichannel for a more holistic system. By consolidating into one platform, brands can gain a single view of sales, networks, and inventory across digital and physical channels. It also allows merchants to gain a single view of customer behavior at every touchpoint irrespective of the channel. Through this agile technology, retailers can offer consistent shopping experiences.
In today’s commerce, a brand no longer controls the customer’s experience from start to purchase to delivery. A customer might explore a brand’s products in any number of virtual or physical stores, ultimately purchasing through a different channel altogether. How can a brand create and maintain a consistent experience across all channels and touch points?
Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword; the retail industry has a significant responsibility to help positively impact the environment. Many retailers are striving to become greener by switching packaging or source materials for their products. But the difficulties of providing a truly sustainable supply chain are paramount and fragmented. For sellers who wish to have a truly circular shopping model, obstacles abound: the cost to be verified as Fair Trade is exorbitant and there is little support for a seamless, truly environmentally-friendly customer journey.
Now, more than ever, retailers need transparency in the supply chain. Bad inventory management (a decentralized, unclear system or a centralized system that is susceptible to hackers), lack of authenticity in products (increased demand leads to vagueness in the manufacturer's origination), and overly-complicated, opaque record-keeping are some of the major issues facing brands. But with more and more retailers adopting blockchain technology, these problems are becoming a thing of the past.
