RECITE ME SECTORS

Retail Accessibility

Create a unique and personalised shopping experience for people visiting your online store. Provide accessibility & language support to help shoppers overcome barriers, allowing users to digest online content in a way that works for them.

Creating an Accessible Online Store will Enable Visitors to Browse and Purchase Barrier Free

Approximately one billion people globally have a disability and they can often face barriers when shopping online. The consumer spending power of people with disabilities and their families is a massive £2.25 trillion worldwide.

Less than 10% of businesses have a targeted plan to access this disability market. Providing assistive technology on your e-commerce website will provide a custom shopping experience that allows everyone to shop and purchase hassle-free.

Why E-commerce Websites Need to Provide an Inclusive Online Experience

Enhanced Brand Image

Welcoming people with varied disabilities and access needs promotes your commitment to inclusion and sets you apart from the competition.

Increased Revenue

1 in every 5 people has a physical, visual, auditory, cognitive, or neurological disability. So if your website isn’t accessible, you’re missing out on 20% of the market share.

Employer of Choice

Being inclusive sets you apart as an employer of choice. Higher staff satisfaction scores and reduced turnover rates will increase the pool of candidates who want to interview, work, and stay with you.

Let us show you how easy it can be.

Thousands of retail webpages made accessible through the use of assistive technology

According to Think With Google, 63% of all shopping journeys start online, so the onus is on retailers to ensure that their websites are welcoming to all consumers.

With this in mind it is no surprise that so many retail organisations and e-commerce stores are investing in the Recite Me assistive toolbar.

“Recite Me is a great tool to help candidates who are neurodiverse. 1 in 7 of us in the UK is understood to be neurodivergent and we believe it is higher in the food and beverage industry. A neurodiverse workforce is crucial, and brings so many additional skills such as problem solving and creativity, the list is endless!"

That’s why we’ve worked with Recite Me to make our website digitally inclusive. It’s the right thing to do and the best decision for our business. It’s enabling candidates access to apply to roles here at The Very Group they may very well have been unable to without this.
