Retail trade
Retail trade represents about 11.6% of metro GDP in 2024, the second-largest private sector here. Retailers and consumer brands depend on Salesforce for service, loyalty and marketing, and their requests cluster around promotions and the holiday season. Managed services lets them schedule changes ahead of those peaks, hold a change freeze during them and clear the backlog afterward, with the same team that already knows their service processes. Promotions get the attention they need without derailing everything else.
