“Overall retail sales have slipped during the coronavirus pandemic, but e-commerce continues to skyrocket, accounting for 14.5% of total retail sales this year. The top ten e-commerce retailers are expected to increase their market share to 60.1%, with Amazon at the top position in the market. E-commerce alone went from over $423 billion in 2018, to almost $710 billion (expected) this year, and $859.28 in 2022 (GlobeSt.com). While the second wave of coronavirus may continue to shake up CRE, industrial seems ready to weather the storm.”  -Adam Abushagur
