Top 70 Retail Ideas in December

With growing awareness of the acute effects of climate change, the December 2021 retail trends show a growing push for sustainable shopping practices.

Though there has long been a push for supermarkets to offer more local products, one retailer is taking things to the next level. Fresh Thyme Market is a retailer that already specializes in natural and organic food products, and now the chain is launching a brand new concept store that aims to source local products for shoppers in St. Louis, Missouri.

Beyond sourcing local, the December 2021 retail trends offer other takes on sustainable and climate-friendly shopping. For instance, Intuit now offers a variety of apps and tools to help small and medium-sized businesses measure their carbon footprints and keep consumers informed of the impact their consumption has on the planet.
