Internet Shopping To Hit High Street Hard. One in five of Britain's high street shops could close by 2018 as more customers turn to the internet for their shopping, new research has found.
A study carried out by the Centre for Retail Research warned that 62,000 shops could fold in the next five years. The independent retail analysis group estimates that around 316,000 workers would lose their jobs as a result, and large areas of Britain's high streets would be turned into housing. Online shopping is expected to surge over the next few years, accounting for 22% of retail spending by 2018 compared to 12.7% currently, the study suggests.
