Retail Dive - Top Retail Trends of 2022

 
Top Trends of 2022
 
 
 
 
2022 was full of surprises. And Retail Dive was right there alongside you covering the continued impact of COVID-19 on our industry, changing shopping habits due to inflation and the companies and individuals that showed leadership during a time of transformation.

An industry in flux is at the heart of many of our overarching trends of the year. Retailers faced activist investors. Workforces saw unionization efforts and layoffs. And some stores experimented with different formats as others increased their direct-to-consumer efforts. Below, we share some of the stories that marked trends we observed over the past year.

As we enter into 2023, we kindly ask that you consider sharing our newsletter with your teammates and colleagues, to help them stay more informed in the new year. Share this link to get them signed up: https://www.retaildive.com/signup/insiders/?signup_referred_by=60091a9be19a9279a2247d3d
