Research by Incisiv , conducted in collaboration with The Food Industry Association and in partnership with Loyal Guru , shows that maintaining shopper loyalty in the digital grocery industry is a growing challenge .
The Shopper Loyalty in the Digital Age report shows the importance of offering a seamless omnichannel experience for shoppers to foster loyalty , including providing a well-designed digital platform , integrating with digital channels and offering personalized experiences that meet the needs and expectations of individual shoppers .
The report reveals 74 % of grocers believe that digital shopping has made shoppers less loyal and 76 % believe that a poor web and mobile experience reduces shopper loyalty .
“ Grocers must recognize that poor digital experiences can lead to lost loyalty and prioritize building a digital-focused loyalty program that enhances the omnichannel shopper journey ,” said Gaurav Pant , Chief Insights Officer of both Incisiv and Grocery Doppio .
