Insights

The holiday retail traffic data reveals mixed signals for the retail sector. While the 2.3% decline in Black Friday week traffic appears concerning, it actually shows resilience when compared to the broader 3.0% year-to-date decline. The data indicates a shift in consumer behavior rather than a significant pullback in spending. Four of the five busiest shopping days are still ahead, suggesting potential for strong December performance.

The improved Sunday performance with a 2.4% increase signals that consumers are spreading their shopping across more days, likely influenced by extended promotional periods and omnichannel offerings. This pattern benefits retailers by allowing better inventory management and staffing optimization, though it may impact traditional peak day sales intensity.

  • Shopping visits for Nov. 24 – Dec. 1 were down 2.3% compared to Black Friday week 2023 but outpaced year-to-date traffic trends

NEUHAUSEN, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- In-store traffic data from Sensormatic Solutions, the leading global retail solutions portfolio of Johnson Controls (NYSE: JCI), indicates American consumers’ continued interest in brick-and-mortar shopping experiences this holiday season. The brand’s ShopperTrak Analytics data showed that visits to stores and retail centers over the holiday week (Nov. 24 – Dec. 1) were down 2.3% year-over-year but outperformed year-to-date traffic, which has been down 3.0% on average.

Sensormatic Solutions also finalized its analysis of traffic patterns on Black Friday, finding that traffic on Nov. 29 was down 6.3% year-over-year (revised from preliminary data reported on Nov. 30).

“While the patterns of shopping have shifted, the spread of traffic across Black Friday week allowed retailers to maintain store standards and meet customers how, when and where they want to shop,” said Grant Gustafson, head of retail consulting and analytics at Sensormatic Solutions. “The holiday week saw retailers maximizing all the at their disposal — omnichannel retail, tailored promotions, shored-up supply chains and optimized shopper-to-associate ratios — to create an improved in-store shopping experience. Data-driven decision making based on the trends of this week is how retailers will continue to win during this holiday season.”

Most of Sensormatic Solutions predicted busiest holiday shopping days are still to come, including four of the top five: Super Saturday (Dec. 21), the Monday Before Christmas (Dec. 23), the Sunday before Christmas (Dec. 22) and the second Saturday before Christmas (Dec. 14).

“Though Black Friday is expected to be the busiest single shopping day of the 2024 holiday rush, there’s still plenty retailers can do to capture growing holiday spending,” said Gustafson. “As retailers prepare for the rest of the season’s busiest days, keeping a close eye on critical traffic metrics like peak traffic hours, demographics and dwell times can help them ensure their stores are up to the task of accommodating holiday traffic.”
