Brick and Morter retail has been teetering on the edge of survival for years. This will probably be what shoves 50-75% of brick and mortar retail off the cliff.
I think clothing shops will survive. I hate ordering shoes & clothing online because you never know if it's really going to fit right. But yeah, I think a lot of places are headed for oblivion due to Amazon & COVID-19.
I think we're going to see a huge rise in ghost kitchens as at-home food deliveries increase, and I think they will grow & the concept will stick around as a permanent part of our culture going forward. The only thing the food delivery systems need to figure out is the costing...I ordered Uber Eats the other day because there was a $0 delivery fee offer & didn't realize they charged me almost $10 for a "service fee" until afterwards. Total bait & switch advertising
