Enhancement coming in the delivery of online purchases says report

Global B2C E-Commerce Delivery 2018

includes projections about new technologies that will improve delivery of online purchases.

Delivery timeliness and cost are considered as part of the purchase package

As consumers research products and consider an online purchase, they look for free or low-cost delivery. Part of the research includes a perusal of comments regarding delivery in online reviews written by previous purchasers. The report includes a summary of a survey from last year in the USA that found that late delivery, high shipping costs, lost items and erroneous tracking information were among the main sources of dissatisfaction with buying over the Internet.

Online sellers look to innovative technology to improve the delivery experience for shoppers.

Online merchants have found it necessary to offer alternatives to satisfy consumer expectations of the delivery process. Tradition store-based merchants offer the click-&-collect for online purchases to reduce delivery time and costs, and online-only sellers have established lockers in public places or convenience stores. The report includes the projections that innovative technologies such as driverless vehicles, drones, and droids will be put in place by the end of the next decade.

Report Summary

The global fashion B2C E-Commerce market is forecasted to exceed half a trillion euros in sales by 2022, according to projections cited in the report. In terms of online penetration of total retail sales by 2022, more than one-third of clothing, accessories, and footwear spending is expected to occur online. The growth is driven by increasing number of online fashion shoppers who look for convenience, larger product selection, lower prices, convenient payment methods, online reviews and product ratings when purchasing clothing and accessories on the Internet.

Clothing is one of the most popular product categories purchased by digital shoppers worldwide. Due to its huge population and the high fashion online shopper penetration, China is the largest online fashion retail market globally. Tmall and Taobao are the leading channels for buying apparel products in that country, the report reveals. The USA is in second place worldwide in online sales volume of fashion products. As of summer 2018, Amazon was the preferred pure online store for purchasing fashion items among pure online players and multi-channel retailers in the USA. The UK is the European leader in online apparel, footwear and accessories retail sales, with more than a half of adults purchasing these items online in 2017.

HM.com was the most popular fashion E-Commerce website in the world in terms of the number of monthly visits. Russian-based online fashion retailer Wildberries.ru ranked second, followed by pure online players Asos.com and store-based Zara.com, in a ranking from 2018 cited in the report.

The global online clothing market competition intensifies as Amazon has demonstrated a strong interest in the global expansion of the online fashion segment in recent years. In the growing competitive environment, omnichannel strategies have become vitally important for both online and store-based retailers of apparel. In the USA, the online shopping sites of store-based retailers Walmart, Kohl's and Macy's were among the top five destinations for online clothing shopping. On the other hand, European online fashion retailer Zalando began to expand an offline segment by opening several brick and mortar outlets in Germany.
