There is one trend that has picked up serious steam in the last couple of years. It appears to have been spurred by the pandemic, but it doesn’t look to be dying down anytime soon: health conscientiousness in eCommerce – both purchasing and selling.
Customers are now demanding healthier, more advantageous products of all kinds over the preservative-filled, synthetic ingredient-pumped products of the past. While this trend extends to several industries in eCommerce (and in business overall), it might not be relevant in every one of them. However, for those industries that it is relevant, it is glaringly so.
