COVID Ecommerce Trends
South Africa’s eCommerce sector is rapidly growing now more than it has ever before. In 2020, South Africa’s eCommerce grew by 66% compared to the year before. This increase was primarily influenced by the restrictions placed on traditional retail stores that led to the reduction of in-store shopping by 30%.
The digital economy boomed during the COVID-19 crisis. As people embraced social distancing, they turned to online shopping more than ever before. 67% of consumers report they shop differently now due to COVID-19.
Retailers are stepping up to the challenge, not just by supporting more online sales, but by embracing emerging technologies that created connections with shoppers or made their customer experience more convenient. Source: Covid ECommerce Trends
