The changes to make as customers go back to work and education

The guide provides help on how consumers habits might change, what types of products are likely to do well and what brands might be stocked.

Tracey Redfearn, Unitas’s ‘Plan for Profit’ category controller, said: “As restrictions are eased further, independent retailers are seeing changes in shopper habits, with many now combining working from home and returning to the office for part of the week.

“These behavioural changes have an impact on the products customers are searching for and we highlight these key opportunities in this new edition of Focus On.”

The Focus On series now includes 14 guides which are all available to view and download at www.planforprofit.co.uk .

Unitas Wholesale will be launching more Focus On guides throughout 2021 with printed copies available in selected Unitas Wholesale member depots.

Digital versions are available to view and download via the Plan for Profit website and app, search ‘Plan for Profit’ to download the app from your preferred app store.
