“The pandemic led retailers to quickly build out infrastructure to support the increase in e-commerce sales. The advent of this infrastructure, in turn, has accelerated western Europe’s shift toward e-commerce,” the American company added. “As much as it grew in 2020, e-commerce will make up a smaller share of retail sales in western Europe this year than in Asia-Pacific (where that share will hit 29.6 per cent) or in North America (where it will be 15.2 per cent).”
