Retailers must therefore sit themselves in a position that allows them to take advantage of this complex environment (Krafft and Mantrala 7). Having been in existence for over a century, the Target Corporation an American retail federation has proved to be up to the challenge and has subsequently thrived in the retail industry. Through one of its employees, Target was able to create a clay sculpture that allows the store to predict human behavior and thus preempt their competitors by meeting the individual needs of their customers.
