Trendlines In Retail Demand And eCommerce

Hasbro

Hasbro said that its gaming and entertainment units fueled sales last quarter, as homebound shoppers in the U.S. and Canada purchased more games to keep children occupied during COVID-related shutdowns and limitations.

And in checkout conversion, a record share of merchants are providing buy buttons. All this, Today in Data.
