TRANSCRIPT
We built a dynamic tracker to analyze the impact of the pandemic on retail, based on anonymized data from over 100 North American retail brands.
Several months in, retail shoppershave settled into new rhythms, with indications of a modest rebound as we have all begun to make sense of things.
This snapshot shows shifts in revenue across channel, vertical, digital medium, and demographic.

1. From March through June 2020, revenue fell over 23%
year-over-year as consumers stayed home and many began to
curtail their spending. As of July, the retail industry shows a remarkable recovery to nearly flat performance year-on-year.
2. This recovery has been led by consistently higher ecommerce sales (+12.5% year-over-year in July and +10%
in the first 4 months of COVID) and buffered by the reopening
of stores (in-store retail -21% in July compared to -62%
earlier this year).
3. From March through June, we saw steep declines in revenue
from all age groups, with older customers appearing more
resilient to the incumbent downturn.
At a Glance:But as of July, the data shows that younger customers are leading the rebound, with customers in their 20s actually
up 13% year-over-year. And while all age groups under 60
showed improvement during July, older customers regressed.
4. Mobile ecommerce shows a consistent overall increase in revenue by ~50% year-over-year. And while consumers
initially shied away from non-mobile ecommerce, July shows
marked improvement for non-mobile consumer spend (-7%
in July compared to -28% over the first 4 months of COVID).
5. Both men and women are rebounding from steep declines in March-June (from -33% to -5% for women, and
from -52% to -16% for men), and women’s spending behavior
is still less affected than men.
