Market Trends of US E-commerce Logistics Industry

Upgrade e-commerce with new supply chain technology

As digitalization continues to revolutionize industries around the world, it’s only natural that supply chain technology will also need a refresh or two – not only for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to optimize their supply chains but also to keep up with their competition.

Artificial intelligence (AI) plays a significant role in e-commerce, as it can be used to enhance customer service in the form of intelligent product recommendation, personalization, virtual assistants, and chatbots, among others. In addition to e-commerce, supply chains can also benefit from technologies like machine learning, which helps with planning and demand forecasting, as well as data analytics, which optimizes and automates inventory management. Augmented reality (AR) can also be used to create a more immersive experience when introducing a product. For example, many cosmetics brands use AR software that allows customers to ‘try on’ products before making a purchase.
