Online shopping is big business in the UK. The IMRG Capgemini e-Retail Sales Index has reported that online sales in the UK totaled \u00a391bn in 2013, a rise of 16% on the previous year. Now that figure\u2019s set to rise by a further 17% this year to reach total online sales of \u00a3107bn. It\u2019s very much due to the rise of consumers using tablets and mobile devices like Smartphones to make their purchases \u2013 a trend that was huge in 2013 and is set to become even more popular in 2014. <\/p>\n
In fact, it\u2019s predicted that the number of mobile devices being used in 2014 will outnumber the number of world population! With our increasingly fast-paced lifestyles, we can communicate with the click of a button and consumers are more and more used to having whatever they want or need delivered to them, almost instantly. It\u2019s convenient, and it\u2019s certainly a trend that will grow and grow. In fact, it\u2019s also predicted that by 2018 the online food and grocery sector will be worth \u00a38.1bn, an incredible 123.7% increase over five years. <\/p>\n
This massive surge in online shopping means it\u2019s vital to have the most up-to-date warehouse storage systems. Consumers expect their ordered goods to arrive fast and accurately, often by the next day. So the pressure is on e-tailers to pick, pack and despatch as quickly as possible. This means that automated warehouse storage will likely be critical to e-tail success, with warehouse storage solutions to match. <\/p>\n
