Doubling of UAE Online Retail Sales by 2021 Foreseen in New yStats.com Report
The research specialists of Hamburg-based yStats.com have published a new report titled “UAE B2C E-Commerce Market 2018.” The publication details the expected rapid growth of online retail sales in the UAE between 2017 and 2021.
Hamburg, Germany, January 24, 2018 --(PR.com)-- While online retail sales presently in the UAE lag behind global averages, there are several factors pointing to a rapid future growth. The nation’s high personal income levels, internet connectivity and developed infrastructure, along with recent investment in B2C E-Commerce auger well for rapid growth in the near future. The yStats.com report cites authoritative forecasts of a more than a 100% increase in sales by 2021 compared to 2017.
Online shopping trends such as mobile shopping and purchasing from abroad are among the movements that are helping to overcome the preference for brick and mortar shopping in the UAE. Around 90% of the population have internet access and smartphone penetration is high, according to the yStats.com research.
Souq.com, the largest domestic online merchant was acquired last year by Amazon.com, giving the global operator a large share of sales in the UAE. But traditional store based retailers are rising to the challenge of Amazon’s domination by improving the online shopping experience for their customers.
