Most Innovative UK Retailer category

Who has been the UK’s most innovative, customer focused retailer this year? 

Our judges will be asked to look at the tech deployments, pilots etc listed alongside each retailer and decide which one has been the most consistently forward thinking and customer centric in 2021. 

Last year, Co-op took home the gold for its various last mile delivery and sustainability initiatives.

The judging panel were also impressed by the launch of an augmented reality experience to celebrate the £15 million its members helped raise for more than 4,500 local causes across the UK.

RTIH Editor, Scott Thompson, says: “The coronavirus outbreak has shown just how resilient and fast moving the retail industry can be.”

“And that was reflected in the 2020 RTIH Innovation Awards winners list, featuring as it did, agile, innovative tech ventures and retailers who have performed strongly in challenging times.”

Thompson adds: “The pandemic induced shift to digital has forever changed retail. But that doesn’t mean that physical retail is dead. Far from it.”

“Stores still have a vital role to play in terms of connecting with customers one on one.”

“Retailers are therefore investing in various technologies that deliver personalised customer experiences and make shopping as convenient as possible. A good UK example of the latter being Asda’s Stevenage innovation store.”

“Both myself and QVALON can’t wait to see this trend and many others reflected in the shortlists for the 2021 RTIH Innovation Awards.”
