Consumer actions in the face of delivery problems<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

ATLANTA and LONDON, March 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Descartes Systems Group (Nasdaq: DSGX) (TSX:DSG), the global leader in uniting logistics-intensive businesses in commerce, released the results of its second annual consumer sentiment study of ecommerce home delivery. The\u00a0study<\/a>\u00a0of over 8,000 consumers across ten European and North American countries provides retailers and logistics organizations with critical insights into consumer purchase and delivery preferences and concerns.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis past year\u2019s growth slowdown in ecommerce and home delivery has resulted in a 6% improvement in delivery performance versus the 2022 study; however, 67% of the consumers surveyed still experienced a delivery failure in the three-month evaluation period,\u201d said Chris Jones, EVP, Industry and Services at Descartes. \u201cWhat\u2019s more, 68% of those affected by delivery problems took some form of action that translated into negative consequences for the retailer or delivery company (see Figure 1), indicating that the pandemic grace period is over and consumers are becoming intolerant of poor delivery performance.\u201d<\/p>\n
