Abstract
The progress of e-commerce in Germany, Europe' s largest Internet population,
reflects patterns seen earlier in other countries, such as the UK and the US.
But cautious consumers' security concerns and traditional payment habits are
increasingly being overcome.
The Germany Online report analyzes the factors driving the surge in
German e-commerce.
Many German retailers were slow to recognize the advantages of Internet sales
- 30% of the German firms selling on the Web last year launched their online
stores in 2007 or later.
Nevertheless, sales are growing.
By the end of 2008, German retail e-commerce sales - excluding event tickets,
financial products and travel - reached € 13.6 billion ($20 billion), up
€ 2.2 billion ($3.2 billion) from 2007.
Key questions the “Germany Online” report answers:
- How many German consumers are buying products and services on the Internet?
- How do online buying patterns vary with age and gender?
- How is the arrival of online shopping clubs changing the e-commerce
landscape?
- What is the current level of interest in mobile commerce?
- And many others.....
