Thomas Schlitt, Managing Director, Messe Düsseldorf India, points out: “We are very delighted with the brilliant response received from the retail industry for In-store Asia 2023. The event has yet again made its mark by bringing together relevant business opportunities for both exhibitors and visitors. In-store Asia 2023 had something for everyone looking to network and learn from peers and associates in the industry. The event has always been a key meeting point for bellwethers, innovators, distributors, brands and retailers. The 2023 edition has been greatly appreciated for the futuristic ideas and solutions presented both on the expo floor as well as through the dialogues at the convention. I am certain that the connections made here will result in great business prospects for all.”

Elke Moebius, Director Retail & Retail Technology at Messe Düsseldorf, also draws a positive conclusion: “In-store Asia has again confirmed its position as a platform for retail innovations, impressive customer journeys, and shopper-focused strategies that stage physical stores as vibrant, appealing shopping destinations that can captivate and thrill shoppers. Everyone attending here could feel this sense of new departures and investment in the Indian retail sector.”

The 3-day event was accompanied by a Convention under the heading “Humanise, Hybridise, Hyper Localise Retail Experience” where more than 30 speakers delivered talks on such topics as retail research, visual merchandising, shopper marketing and design innovations, to name but a few. Another highlight was the presentation of the coveted VM & RD Retail Design Awards, for which India’s top talents from the Retail Design, Visual Merchandising and Manufacturing sectors competed with each other in 23 distinct categories of store design and window display. At the VM Challenge, six teams of visual merchandisers from renowned brands and companies demonstrated the day before how they conceptualise and realise a shop window within one hour under a given theme and design brief.

Retail-Technologielösungen von Checkpoint Systems

  • Nach der Wiedereröffnung positive Einkaufserlebnisse schaffen und den Verkauf fördern

Ware anfassen, begutachten, daran riechen – viele Kunden sehnen sich nach einer Rückkehr zum unbeschwerten Stöbern in den Geschäften, statt zügig nur das Notwendigste einzukaufen oder online zu bestellen. Retail-Technologielösungen von Checkpoint Systems unterstützen den stationären Einzelhandel dabei, ein gelungenes Einkaufserlebnis zu schaffen, ohne Diebstähle zu begünstigen.

Indem der stationäre Einzelhandel gezielt sensorische Reize anbietet, die über das Sehen hinausgehen, schafft er einen Mehrwert gegenüber dem Online-Shopping – und bedient den Wunsch nach sorgenfreiem Stöbern statt dem schnellen Abarbeiten einer Einkaufsliste. Wichtig für ein positives Einkaufserlebnis ist, dass Waren selbstständig aus dem Regal entnommen und nicht nur angeschaut werden können. Technologielösungen wie die Alpha-Produkte von Checkpoint Systems ermöglichen eine solche offene Warenpräsentation und fördern Impulskäufe, ohne gleichzeitig das Diebstahlrisiko zu erhöhen.

Technologielösungen wie die Alpha-Produkte von Checkpoint Systems ermöglichen eine solche offene Warenpräsentation und fördern Impulskäufe, ohne gleichzeitig das Diebstahlrisiko zu erhöhen.

Mit Technologie das Einkaufserlebnis verbessern
Auch im Eingangsbereich der Geschäfte muss Diebstahlschutz längst nicht mehr mit dem klassischen „Gate-Look“ früherer Warensicherung einhergehen. Moderne elektronische Artikelsicherungssysteme halten die Balance zwischen Ästhetik und Verlustprävention und schmiegen sich in das Gesamtdesign des Stores ein, ohne aufzufallen. Effektives Einzelhandelsdesign kann zu einer potenziellen Umsatzsteigerung von bis zu 40 Prozent führen. Eine Umfrage ergab, dass 86 Prozent der Erwachsenen für ein besseres Kundenerlebnis auch mehr bezahlen würden. Gerade in der aktuelle Situation ist ein positiv in Erinnerung bleibendes Kundenerlebnis umso wichtiger. Laut McKinsey zeigt eine Analyse im Rahmen der Finanzkrise von 2008, dass Unternehmen, die im Bereich „Kundenerlebnis“ führten, einen geringeren Abschwung erlebten, sich schneller erholten und langfristig dreimal so hohe Gesamtrenditen erzielten wie der Marktdurchschnitt.

Hygienevorschriften zuverlässig umsetzen
Entscheidend, um die Ängste von Kunden zu reduzieren und eine Rückkehr zum Einkaufen in den Geschäften zu fördern, ist die zuverlässige Implementierung und Umsetzung von Hygienemaßnahmen. Einzelhändler sollten Richtlinien und Prozesse einführen, um sicheres Einkaufen auf Distanz zu ermöglichen, Produkte und Oberflächen zu desinfizieren und die Regeln proaktiv, offen und einfühlsam zu kommunizieren. Unterstützung bieten hier verschiedene SmartSolutions von Checkpoint Systems. SmartOccupancy beispielsweise zählt in Echtzeit die Anzahl der ein- und austretenden Personen und ermöglicht es so, die Anzahl an Kunden in einem Geschäft im Blick zu haben. Eine Live-Anzeige mit farbkodierten visuellen Warnungen gibt den Verbrauchern Gewissheit, dass sich das Geschäft an die behördlichen Vorgaben zur sozialen Distanzierung hält.

Retouren sind ein weiterer Punkt, der vielen Kunden und Einzelhändlern in Sachen Sicherheit Sorgen bereitet. Die Lösung Inventory Quarantine von Checkpoint Systems bietet Einzelhändlern einen automatisierten Quarantäneprozess für alle zurückgegebenen Waren, der die Bestände sicher und zeitnah behandelt, bevor sie wieder zum Verkauf freigegeben werden.

Miguel Garcia-Manso, Business Unit Director Deutschland, kommentiert: „Die Verlustprävention kann mithilfe moderner Retail-Technologielösungen subtil in das Gesamtdesign eines Geschäfts integriert werden. In Kombination mit smarten Lösungen zum Schutz der Gesundheit von Kunden und Angestellten können stationäre Läden damit nach der Wiedereröffnung für ein positives Kundenerlebnis und gesteigerte Umsätze sorgen.“

EuroShop 2020: High Degree of Internationality confirms Global Leading Function for Retail

Retailers invest in emotionalisation and digitalisation +++ Top theme: linking online with offline shopping +++ Focus on sustainability +++ Accompanying Stages and Specials received very well

The World’s No.1 Retail Trade Fair, EuroShop 2020, drew to a close on Thursday (20 February 2020) after five successful days in Düsseldorf: 2,300 exhibitors from 57 nations reported of very good leads and concluded business deals. Furthermore, lively follow-up business is expected. 94,000 visitors travelled to the Rhine to gather information on the line-up of products, trends and concepts for retailers and their partners featured in 16 exhibition halls.  

“We are delighted that EuroShop once again successfully proved to be the most relevant platform for the global retail community when it comes to trends, inspirations and networking. Our exhibitors deserve the highest praise for their loyalty. With their innovative power they again proved the major attraction for an entire industry,” said Erhard Wienkamp, Managing Director at Messe Düsseldorf, voicing his great satisfaction with EuroShop 2020 results.

Our exhibitors deserve the highest praise for their loyalty. With their innovative power they again proved the major attraction for an entire industry,” said Erhard Wienkamp, Managing Director at Messe Düsseldorf, voicing his great satisfaction with EuroShop 2020 results.

Exhibitors especially applauded the high international attendance at EuroShop. 70% of the EuroShop audience travelled to Düsseldorf from abroad. Large delegations came for example from Brazil, Australia and New Zealand. Trade visitors from a total of 142 countries attended EuroShop 2020.

“This high level of international interest clearly documents the dynamism of the global retail world and the exceptional position EuroShop enjoys as its economic engine,” said Michael Gerling, Chairman of the EuroShop Advisory Board and CEO of the EHI Retail Institute Cologne.

“The success of eCommerce is a real encouragement for retailers: they have understood they have to give their shoppers good reasons beyond the ranges to enter their stores. This competition has taken retail as a whole to the next quality level. Investment is being made in shop fitting so as to create customer journeys,” explains Gerling who adds: “Beyond this, retail digitalisation is booming. It enables retailers to offer their shoppers even more services and link online and offline channels, on the one hand, while simplifying process flows, logistics and lots more, on the other.” At EuroShop 2020 digital transformation was therefore a key focus, also in terms of achieving the highest energy efficiency and sustainability possible.

Exhibitors underlined the high level of expertise among visitors at the event, especially their pronounced decision-making powers, because 70% of the trade fair guests were in international top management. Many of them also used their visit to EuroShop to learn about best practice cases and forward-looking trends in retail at the in total eight Stages. The varied programme of lectures held on the individual Stages on such topics as Retail Technology, Architecture and Store Design or Expo & Event was well attended across the board. Meeting with the same high level of approval were the numerous Specials at EuroShop, including the Start-up Hub, the Designer Village and Premium City.

Numbers speak for themselves here: 96% of trade fair visitors were satisfied with their visit to the trade fair. Just as many confirmed the outstanding position of EuroShop as a trend barometer, networking platform and largest event for the retail sectors.

Due to the current situation associated with the Coronavirus 19.000 visitors less attended this time than at the record event 2017.

The next EuroShop will be held in Düsseldorf from 26 February to 2 March 2023.

Are high-tech experiences the future of retail?

In the relatively short space of time since the last EuroShop in 2017, a lot has changed in retail. Everywhere you look, technology is transforming the way that consumers interact and transact with brands. At EuroShop 2020, 16 to 20 February in Düsseldorf, the 550 international exhibitors of the experience dimension “Retail Technology” (from the more than 2,300 international EuroShop exhibitors) provide impressive proof of this. In the run-up to EuroShop, we had a look around the international stores to see what is already being offered to customers in terms of high-tech.

Spanish fast-fashion retailer Zara has introduced self-service checkouts in store as well as interactive mirrors equipped with RFID; Nike is using local data at its House of Innovation 000 in New York City to stock shelves and restock them based on what the community wants; and at skincare brand SK-II’s Future X Smart Stores in Tokyo, Shanghai and Singapore, visitors are able to experience next generation skin counselling through a magic scan (an AI-enabled skin analysis that unlocks skin age and personalises product recommendations by sitting in front of a mirror for three minutes). There are even coffee shops using robot baristas to serve drinks, such as Café X in San Francisco and Ratio in Shanghai. And then, of course, there is Amazon Go, where customers can pick up shopping and walk out, with payment made automatically through the app.
