The retail automation market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $17.82 billion in 2023 to $20.07 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.6%. The expansion observed in the historic period of the retail automation sector can be attributed to several factors. These include competitive pressures within the industry, the increasing complexity of supply chains, the rapid growth of e-commerce, rising labor costs, and shifting consumer behavior patterns. These dynamics collectively drove the need for automation solutions to streamline operations and remain competitive in the evolving retail landscape.
The retail automation market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $32.01 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.3%. In the forecast period, the anticipated growth of the retail automation sector is driven by various factors. These include the transition towards omnichannel retail strategies, a heightened focus on enhancing customer experiences, increased demand for contactless solutions in light of health concerns, initiatives aimed at sustainability and environmental responsibility, compliance with regulatory requirements, and the implementation of enhanced security measures to safeguard sensitive data. Major trends expected in this period include the adoption of blockchain technology to enhance supply chain transparency, the proliferation of autonomous retail solutions, the integration of augmented reality (AR) in retail experiences, a continued emphasis on sustainability practices, and the expansion of voice commerce as a viable retail channel.
The escalating consumer demands for faster and seamless shopping experiences are poised to drive significant growth in the retail automation market in the coming years. Faster and seamless shopping encompasses swift transactions, streamlined processes, and minimal friction for customers, including efficient checkouts, easy navigation, access to product details, and seamless payments. This trend fuels growth in the retail automation sector by enhancing customer satisfaction, streamlining processes, and optimizing operations through data-driven insights, thereby fostering innovation and market expansion. Retail automation leverages technology to expedite the shopping journey, improving efficiency and convenience for consumers through accelerated transactions and seamless operations. For example, in 2022, Ecommerce Europe reported that total European e-commerce surged to €718 billion with a growth rate of 13%, marking a significant increase from €633 billion in 2020. Consequently, the escalating consumer expectations for faster and seamless shopping experiences are propelling the growth of the retail automation market.
Key players in the retail automation market are actively pursuing the development of advanced technologies, such as the integration of robotics and automation, to elevate customer service and operational efficiency with enhanced functionalities. Integrating robotics and automation involves incorporating robotic systems and automated processes into various industrial operations, manufacturing, or other industries. For instance, in August 2023, Dobot, a Japan-based manufacturer of robotic arms, introduced the Nova collaborative robots tailored for retail automation. The Nova Series comprises models with 2 kg and 5 kg payloads designed for retail and physiotherapy tasks, respectively. Equipped with multiple safety features, these robots intelligently sense human movement and halt operations within 0.01 seconds upon collision detection. Furthermore, in the event of a power outage, Nova automatically freezes in position to ensure the safety of surrounding individuals.
