In a recent report, we looked at how few<br />

industries can leverage Web3 and virtual<br />

environments as seamlessly as automotive.<br />

But when it comes to retail, the opportunity<br />

isn’t so clear. Skeptic’s of the metaverse<br />

often look to retail as the basis for their<br />

argument: ‘Why would people want to<br />

complete a mundane task like grocery<br />

shopping in a virtual world?’<br />

The retail brands activating in Web3 and the<br />

metaverse are not only making the shopping<br />

experience more seamless, but they’re<br />

building communities around their brand and<br />

reaching consumers of tomorrow by tapping<br />

into cultural relevance.<br />

So, which retail brands are active in this<br />

space, what are they currently doing, and<br />

what does the future hold for retail in Web3<br />

and the metaverse?<br />
