Once a bustling hub of activity, the high street as we know it is under threat. With 20% of all retail sales coming from online shopping, it seems that popping to the shops could one day become a thing of the past.
But is this really the end? Or the beginning? Will technology shape our future high streets in ways we can’t imagine? What does this all mean for retailers?
And what about us? Has the way we shop changed for good?
This week, Lizzie and Dara are stepping into the host seats to tackle our latest big question: does the high street have a future? They’re joined by Colin Jeffrey, lead retail consulting partner, and Matt Ward, principal consultant at Market Gravity.
