Online retail sales to rise in both developed countries and emerging markets: study

摘要

Over the next ten years, online retail will gain even more importance than expected so far - not just in developed countries, but also in emerging markets. Logistics will play a key role: it provides companies important competitive advantages, such as deliveries within a few hours on the day of ordering, flexible receiving and return times as well as resilient logistics and value-added concepts in emerging countries. This is one of the key findings of the "Global E-Tailing 2025" study, initiated by Deutsche Post DHL with participation of the trend research institutions Z_punkt as well as numerous international experts from retail, logistics and academia.
