Predictions for in-store retail in 2022

Humans are notoriously bad at seeing into the future so we took the sensible option of asking a super-massive AI for some help. Here are our bionically enhanced predictions for what in-store retail can expect from 2022.

It is expected that at least £10m worth of food, drink and last minute gifts will pass through Britain’s supermarket checkouts every hour over the course of the day. Around a third of this will be accounted for by customers scanning their own shopping.
