Market Trends
Geographically, due to the increasing investment by leading e-commerce companies in emerging economies such as India and China, the Asia Pacific accounts for a significant share of the industry. The fast-growing economies and the rising disposable incomes of consumers in the region are promoting the growth of the industry. In addition, due to the rising tourism activities in countries such as Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, the region is expected to see robust growth during the forecast period.
As increasing travel and tourism activities are expected to increase the demand for products such as clothing, luxury goods, and electronics, these nations are projected to increase their market share. With the global outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the retail industry has been seriously affected as retail sales experienced a dramatic decline during the first half of 2020 due to strict lockdown measures across different countries. In 2020, worldwide retail sales dropped by an average of 9.6%, reflecting a loss of USD 2.1 trillion.
The market is, however, predicted to rebound by 2021 and to experience steady growth in the forecast period. The e-commerce segment is experiencing robust growth based on the distribution channel and is expected to account for a significant share of the industry during the forecast period. This can be due to the growing penetration of smartphones and the ever-increasing use of the Internet worldwide. Market growth is also facilitated by the changing buying behavior of customers and a growing number of suppliers selling online.
The increasing use of the Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the e-commerce industry, which, in turn, is changing the retail industry as a whole. In the meantime, a major increase in the sales of online fresh food is expected, which will support the growth of the industry in the forecast period.
