While overall US retail sales have rebounded relatively quickly following the COVID-19 dip, many retailers are closing their doors permanently. For many in the\u00a0<\/span>apparel, footwear, accessories, and gifts<\/span><\/a> sector, the freeze in consumer spending and the shift to online buying has resulted in a record level of bankruptcies and liquidations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Online sales have been trending upwards for years, and the COVID-19 crisis accelerated the shift to online retail. <\/span>US Census bureau’s data reveals<\/span><\/a> that eCommerce sales in the second quarter rose from 11% to 16% of total sales.

We’ll share how B2B eCommerce businesses are capitalizing and adjusting to this climate and what businesses can learn from these actions.<\/b><\/p>\n
