Unveils integrated retail accelerator designed for what’s next

New York, NY – February 16, 2023 – Dentsu today announced the launch of dentsu shop, a fully integrated retail accelerator developed to help both retailers and brands win in the ever-changing and expanding shopping landscape. As one of dentsu’s growing portfolio of vertical-specific solutions, dentsu shop is a collective which draws upon the best of the network’s commerce capabilities across CXM, media and creative, to deliver on the promise and potential of the increasingly ‘shoppable’ world. 

Dentsu shop is a tightly coordinated ecosystem of cutting-edge technologies, led by the network’s most experienced sector consultants across retail and brand, powering meaningful, data-driven experiences throughout media, commerce and loyalty.  Underpinned by modern creativity, dentsu shop was built to help clients monetize first-party data, multiply the efficiency and efficacy of buy-side media, accelerate shopper growth and generate customer loyalty on the way to creating winning retail experiences – in-store, online, on the digital shelf, or at the end of the aisle.

“The simple fact is that consumers no longer go shopping, they are always shopping.

Watch out for a series of external partnerships and joint product development announcements that are on our roadmap for 2023.”
