Reforming is the main task for wholesalers in 2021 in terms of a stronger competitive environment, global dynamics impacting supply chains, social changes and transformed rules. All in all, wholesalers represent the cornerstone of supply chains. At the beginning of the pandemic they were forced to react fast to the risks involving supply sources which requested a much more efficient model that is based on digitalisation.
One of the most important changes was to switch from multichannel to omnichannel, which means that wholesalers have to put a much bigger emphasis on digitalisation so that they can satisfy consumers needs, gain new customers and enchance their shopping experience.
AI or artificial intelligence can not be left out from the list: by now, each and every B2B firm uses AI on a daily basis. AI has immense benefits and is able to minimise mistakes by which shopping is made much comfortable than ever.
