Small Chamber
Why is the world moving towards e-Stores?
Let’s open our article with a sentence that many of us have been saying for many years “The world has become a small village!” Do you think it’s still just a village?
Maybe it turned into a small chamber now!
The huge technological advances that surround us in all directions and all areas pave, in a very small amount of time, many avenues for leapfrogging in the most profitable direction at the lowest cost and in the smartest way possible, by bypassing the traditional structure of businesses that used to rely on primitive elements.
Are you, as a seller or a buyer of products displayed in a specific place for a certain period, still coping with these outdated stereotyped ways and expecting a convenient profit out of it?
Perhaps in the past, you could manage without technology. However, now, in a time of unprecedented technological prosperity, the world has developed beyond these limited methods.
Nowadays, the country spends about 25 billion dollars on e-commerce. As Egypt is the second largest market in the Middle East.
The real start of the e-markets in Egypt was after Amazon, the second largest trademark in the world, entered the Egyptian market. As it created the competition to acquire electronic purchases and satisfy customers’ desires and attract them to online shopping.
Marketing companies have contributed significantly to the growth of e-commerce in Egypt, exceeding 100 billion pounds in 2021. With the continued role of these companies, this type of trade will reach $1.2 trillion globally by 2025.
In Egypt, e-commerce volume has also grown significantly since the beginning of the coronavirus crisis, totaling about $25 billion. Credit card purchases and prepayments jumped from $3.6 billion to $4.9 billion last year, which were made only through online platforms and prepaid other than cash payments after receipt.
Why is Egypt second in the Middle East?
In 2021, Egypt’s e-commerce reached $4.9 billion following the coronavirus crisis. Before the pandemic, the volume of online goods trading was $3.6 billion. Egypt ranks second in terms of the volume and value of e-commerce in North Africa and the Middle East.
