Popis: The COVID-19 pandemic started as a health crisis; however, it dramatically generated social, economic, and behavioral changes. The transformations in business environment, shopping, and consumption behaviors are believed to be long-lasting after the pandemic era. Therefore, COVID-19 is a disruptive force. In this chapter, the authors analyzed the effects of COVID-19 on retailing industry as a result of changes in shopping behaviors.
