Top Trends that Defined the 2022 Holiday Season

 

As retailers attempt to recover from challenges of the pandemic with surging demand and supply chain bottlenecks, another quandary has reared its head: inflation. Many consumers say they’re cutting back on spending due to inflation, with 43% planning to spend less at the holidays, according to NPD Group research.

In this Trendline, explore the top stories that defined retail strategy during the 2022 holiday shopping season. Highlights include:    

  • Rising prices have made shoppers choosey, budget-minded and less loyal — but they’re still spending
  • ‘You can pay or you can wait’: How retailers are navigating a shipping crisis
  • Retailers take expensive measures to clear inventory ahead of peak season
