The growing focus of retailers towards enhancing customer experience is driving the global connected retail market.

The presence of major retail chains such as Walmart, The Kroger Co, and Target among others that are investing heavily in connected technologies to increase their revenue generation has contributed to the high share of the regional market. For instance, in June 2021, Walmart renamed is media business to Walmart Connect, which was formerly known as Walmart Media Group.
