Study: Consumers want to shop in-store — ChainStoreAge.com

Despite the popularity of e-commerce, many consumers still prefer to shop at physical stores:

“SPAR Group’s latest survey shows that in-store shopping remains a fixture of most consumers’ routines, with more than 80% preferring to purchase groceries in-store and more than 45% choosing to shop in-store at discount, convenience, home improvement, and apparel stores. Seven-in-10 shoppers expect to increase shopping in stores in the next six months, which SPAR says is in line with the most recent U.S. consumer confidence statistics.“
