Nihilent Retail

A nexus of tech forces has transformed the retail cart in the last few years. Technology has eliminated the last mile with online retail reaching the customers doorstep. Brick and Mortar enterprises no longer can afford to stay out of online retail and need to transition to the new reality and start operating as ‘Born in the Digital’ companies.

Digital consumers are now demanding cross channel experience from their favorite brands. This has redefined consumer expectations challenging retail businesses to relook at their business models and strategies.

Across retail and eCommerce businesses, digital consumers are driving this transformation. Traditionally commerce has been purely transactional, but with the help of emerging technologies like AI, Cognitive Intelligence, commerce is moving towards relationship-based engagement between consumers and sellers. We believe this will not just bring empathy to the relationship, but also build trust between them in the long term.

Moreover, the concept of loyalty programs is also going through this paradigm shift. Instead of expecting loyalty from their customers, retailers are now working towards being loyal to these customers through a deeper understanding of their needs, consumption behavior and personalization.

This is where cutting edge digital technologies intercept the traditional retail tech models and rewriting the rules of the game. Emerging technologies help identify every individual consumer as ‘a unique profile’ enabling retailers to engage with them as per their individual needs. However, models of engagements vary across categories and formats of retailing.

Nihilent’s retail practice is focused on addressing retail industry challenges around customer engagement, omnichannel presence, deployment of business-critical enterprise technologies like ERP systems, along with profitable trading.

We help retailers grow their business through specialized eCommerce, POS (Point of Sale), SAP S4 HANA implementation services, Advanced Analytics and Machine Learning-Driven solutions, UX Testing, Bespoke Application Development, Application Integration Services, and Mobile Solutions. At Nihilent, we bring a holistic approach to helping our customers transform to a digital business.
