Retail Media Networks Market Outlook 2025-2034: Market Share, and Growth Analysis

The Retail Media Networks Market is valued at USD 19.8 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8% to reach USD 39.7 billion by 2034.

The Retail Media Networks Market has rapidly become one of the most transformative forces in digital advertising and retail strategy. Retail media networks (RMNs) enable retailers to monetize their digital and physical spaces by offering advertisers the ability to promote products directly on their owned platforms, including websites, mobile apps, and in-store screens. These networks allow brands to engage with shoppers at or near the point of purchase, using first-party data collected by the retailer to target audiences with precision. As third-party cookies phase out and privacy regulations tighten, RMNs provide a valuable alternative by leveraging high-intent shopper data in a compliant and transparent manner. This market is being driven by a convergence of retail, media, and technology, opening new revenue streams for retailers while delivering measurable returns for advertisers.

The Retail Media Networks Market witnessed explosive growth, with major retailers expanding their ad offerings and building dedicated retail media platforms. Supermarkets, pharmacy chains, department stores, and e-commerce giants significantly scaled their media networks, offering sponsored product listings, banner ads, shoppable video content, and in-store digital signage. Retailers deepened partnerships with brands and agencies by providing real-time campaign performance metrics, closed-loop attribution, and advanced audience segmentation. Many platforms began integrating AI to automate ad placement, targeting, and optimization. Retail media also started to extend beyond digital shelves to include CTV (connected TV), influencer collaborations, and immersive app experiences. As a result, RMNs became a central pillar of modern retail monetization strategies and digital advertising budgets, attracting increasing attention from CPG and DTC brands.

The Retail Media Networks Market is expected to become more sophisticated, standardized, and interconnected. Cross-retailer collaborations and third-party media networks will allow advertisers to manage campaigns across multiple retail ecosystems through unified platforms. AI and predictive analytics will play a larger role in dynamic creative optimization and shopper journey mapping. Retailers will increasingly monetize in-store data and integrate media offerings with loyalty programs, enabling hyper-personalized experiences both online and offline. Expect more media networks to leverage AR, digital twins, and 5G to create immersive, shoppable retail environments. However, success will depend on building scalable infrastructure, ensuring data privacy compliance, and managing brand safety across formats. The market will mature quickly, becoming a core component of the broader digital advertising and retail experience landscape.
