Connected retail success

Connected retail success

In today’s retail landscape, poor connectivity can drive away shoppers to competitors and push employees to quit or consider leaving their jobs.

Investing in secure, high-speed networks enables personalised recommendations, seamless in-store Wi-Fi, automated logistics, and a fast, secure checkout experience.

Our research suggests that strategic investments in connectivity and productivity could unlock up to £7bn in value by 2030. These improvements may also return nine working days to each employee annually - time that could be spent on business-boosting projects.

Our robust broadband network delivers the fast, secure connectivity retailers need to build loyalty, reduce staff turnover, and create standout shopping experiences.
