Global E-Commerce Market Trends:
The market is primarily driven by the increasing penetration of smart devices and the significant improvements in the network infrastructure across the globe. The development of 4G and 5G technology has enabled users to seamlessly access e-commerce platforms. This, along with globalization and rapid urbanization, especially in developing economies, is increasing the exposure to online portals among the masses. Moreover, there has been a significant shift in the purchasing habits of individuals. The use of e-commerce platforms not only offers a vast array of products at competitive prices, but also provides flexible payment and return/exchange policies to users. This has aided in boosting the buyers’ confidence regarding online services, thereby providing a thrust to the market growth. Numerous new entrants are also venturing into the market since e-commerce businesses enable enterprises to conduct business without maintaining a physical presence, which allows them to reduce the infrastructure, communication and overhead costs significantly. Coupled with this, the advent of private-label and direct to consumer-based business models is acting as another major growth-inducing factor. The market is further driven by the increasing adoption of online shopping by the majority of the population amid the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. The rapid outbreak of the pandemic has resulted in mandatory lockdown across various countries, thereby resulting in the closure of brick and mortar businesses on the global level. This has impelled the masses to use e-commerce platforms for acquiring daily essentials, including food, clothing, and electronics.
