The Retail Trade sector entered 2025 on a muted footing, with revenue growth of just 0.2% to reach $7.4 trillion. E-commerce remains a bright spot, with steady mid-single-digit gains in recent years, boosted by younger consumers' strong preference for digital channels. Yet, the sector's gains in digital shopping are balanced by ongoing challenges in discretionary spending, high operating costs and tariffs that threaten earnings. Profit has been pressured by steep price competition online and inflation-related expenses, though essential retailers in sub-sectors like food and health have managed steadier performance. Current efforts around omnichannel strategies, technology-driven efficiencies and sustainability reflect the sector's dual focus: capturing digital momentum while offsetting erosion in traditional store-based sales. Over the current period, the sector's revenue expanded at a modest CAGR of 2.2%, highlighting how the pandemic's volatility gave way to cautious but relatively stable expansion. Revenue streams benefited from major operations like Target, Walmart and Amazon reshaping retail into one-stop ecosystems that blend products and services, diversifying into groceries, healthcare, beauty and wellness. Automation adoption--from self-checkout kiosks to advanced inventory management--helped mitigate rising wage costs and sharpened efficiency, while marketing automation improved customer engagement through more tailored promotions. Still, profit took hits from inflation, heightened competition and consumers trading down to value alternatives amid tightening budgets. Consumer priorities for sustainability have altered market dynamics, leading to investments in resale programs and greener programs. The sector's growth is expected to slow, with revenue climbing at an anticipated 1.3% CAGR through 2030, reaching $7.9 trillion. While consumer disposable income is set to strengthen modestly, fragile sentiment from inflation, tariffs and labor market uncertainty may temper spending power. Technology will be a key driver in reshaping operations and growth opportunities. AI is poised to enhance inventory control, price optimization, delivery logistics and fraud prevention. Extended reality innovations, from AR try-ons to immersive VR shopping, will engage younger consumers and potentially redefine customer experiences, though costs and adoption hurdles remain. Reverse logistics and the circular economy will gain ground as sustainability priorities align with value-seeking behavior. Discounters and warehouse clubs are expected to capture share in the near term as households continue trading down, though specialty and discretionary retail could stage a rebound later in the outlook period as consumer confidence improves.
