In tandem with gradual economic recovery, current value sales of apparel and footwear are expected to increase modestly over the forecast period. This will be facilitated by greater attendance at special events and an increase in demand for occasional wear and items related to specific hobbies and sports.
The current difficult economic conditions, alongside rising energy and operational costs, are likely to have a long-lasting effect on retailers' margins. Independent apparel and footwear specialists offering specific types of clothing or footwear will likely find it more difficult to compete with the larger chains with deeper pockets, which can invest in marketing, store renovations and new retailing concepts to help drive sales.
Digital technologies may help apparel and footwear specialists in Switzerland increase sales, improve operations, and enhance customer experience in the coming years. Many players have already developed online stores or have partnered with e-commerce platforms to sell their products online.

Apparel and footwear specialists are chained or independent retail outlets with a primary focus on selling one or more of the following categories: clothing, footwear, and/or fashion accessories (costume jewellery, sunglasses, belts, hats, gloves, handbags, scarves, etc.). Apparel specialists include specialty apparel like wedding dress shops. Example brands include Primark, TJ Maxx, and Zara. Sportswear retailers, such as Adidas and Nike, are excluded from this channel and are included in Sports Goods Stores; this is due to the companies considering themselves sports companies as opposed to apparel companies.
