2012: US eCommerce and Online Retail sales projected to reach $226 billion, an increase of 12 percent over 2011
Business models across the world also continue to change drastically with the advent of e-commerce and this change is not just restricted to USA. Other countries are also contributing to the growth of e-commerce. For example, the United Kingdom has the biggest e-commerce market in the world when measured by the amount spent per capita, even higher than the USA. The internet economy in UK is likely to grow by 10% between 2010 to 2015. This has led to changing dynamics for the advertising industry[23] Amongst emerging economies, China's e-commerce presence continues to expand. With 430 million internet users, China's online shopping sales rose to $136.6 billion in 2011 and one of the reasons behind the huge growth has been the improved trust level for shoppers. The Chinese retailers have been able to help consumers feel more comfortable shopping online.[24] eCommerce is also expanding across the Middle East. Having recorded the world’s fastest growth in internet usage between 2000 and 2011, the region is now home to more than 100 million internet users. Retail, travel and gaming are the region’s top eCommerce segments, in spite of difficulties such as the lack of region-wide legal frameworks and logistical problems in cross-border transportation.[25] E-Commerce has become an important tool for businesses worldwide not only to sell to customers but also to engage them.[26]
Fazit: JP Selects hat seine Basis in den USA - vernetzt sich jedoch laufend mit anderen Anbietern (Alleine das Joint-Venture mit der Drittgrössten Chinesischen E-Commerce Plattform. ) so dass davon ausgegangen werden kann, dass JP Selects von diesem Milliarden-Kuchen sich ein schönes Stück abschneiden kann. Nehmen wir nur 1 % vom USA Markt dann würde dies auf Sicht mehr als 2 Milliarden Revenues bedeuten - |
