Winning Three Years Early
The goal was ambitious. It was a magnet for doubters, critics, and naysayers. But when Nike announced digital sales would account for 30% of total sales by 2023, the company was showing the world its strategic hand. The future of commerce would be direct-to-consumer (DTC) and digital. Nike’s bet paid off faster than imagined. Even though COVID-19 forced consumers online as brick-and-mortar stores closed, Nike’s digital sales accelerated after lockdown restrictions eased and retail stores reopened. It’s evidence, according to Nike, that the channel shift already underway prior to the pandemic has staying power. Nike reached it’s 30% digital sales mix three years ahead of schedule. It now expects the sales mix to tilt even heavier toward digital as the global trend accelerates in a post-COVID-19 world.
