The Ecommerce market in Europe is expected to grow by 4.45% on annual basis to reach US$ 1.20 trillion in 2024.

Medium to long term growth story of Ecommerce industry in Europe promises to be attractive. The Ecommerce is expected to grow steadily over the forecast period, recording a CAGR of 7.24% during 2024-2028. The Ecommerce gross merchandise value in this region will increase from US$ 1.15 trillion in 2023 to reach US$ 1.59 trillion by 2028.

The B2C e-commerce market is expected to grow at a steady rate over the medium term in Europe. In 2024, the publisher expects consumer spending to pick up pace, thereby driving higher gross merchandise value in the European e-commerce market. Notably, the demand for discounted products across the region has resulted in players expanding their presence in more European markets.

The competitive landscape is also fast-growing in the online food delivery sector. Global firms are planning to expand presence in European markets to diversify revenue growth over the medium term. This trend is projected to continue further in 2024 in Europe. Overall, the publisher maintains a positive growth outlook for the B2C e-commerce industry in Europe over the next three to four years.

Retailers are charging return fees on online purchases to offset the rise in delivery and processing costs

Product return has been a major issue for online commerce platforms. The surge in return rate is adversely affecting the profitability of most retailers. As a result, firms are now charging return fees on online purchases to offset the rise in delivery and processing costs.
  • H&M, for instance, announced that the firm is set to charge shoppers who wanted to return their unwanted items bought online. The group, in September 2023, revealed that it will charge £1.99 to take back items that are not faulty or damaged by post. The fee will be deducted from the customer's refund unless they are signed up for the free membership loyalty scheme offered by the firm. H&M, however, is offering free returns for in-stores.
  • H&M is not the only retailer to have adopted such return policy measures. Similar return fees have been introduced by rival retailers including Zara, New Look, Uniqlo, Boohoo, and Next. Asos and Marks & Spencer, however, have continued to offer free returns in their bid to bring in more shoppers. H&M, going forward, is planning to launch the return fee in more of its global markets in 2024, after introducing it in the United Kingdom in 2023.
As return rates continue to climb for fashion retailers, the publisher expects more retailers to adopt a return fee policy from the short to medium-term perspective. This, in turn, might reduce the gross merchandise value for online retailers over the next three to four years.

Global food delivery platforms are seeking to expand their presence in the European markets

To diversify their revenue stream and reduce dependence on the domestic market, global food delivery businesses are projected to expand their presence in the European market over the medium term.
  • DoorDash, for instance, is seeking to diversify beyond its core business of delivering restaurant meals in the United States. The push into the European markets comes 18 months after the firm acquired Finland-based Wolt in an all-stock deal worth €7 billion. The firm has been growing at a significant pace over the last 12 to 18 months. At the end of September 2023, the firm reportedly generated US$878 million of free cash flow in the 12 months.
  • DoorDash has been expanding in smaller geographies to avoid competition. The firm, for instance, launched operations in Austria and Iceland in 2023. Going forward, the publisher expects DoorDash to further launch services in other European markets, having lower competition. Over the medium term, DoorDash is also targeting to build its advertising business. The segment has helped DoorDash to achieve higher revenues in 2023.
To diversify its business, DoorDash is also targeting expansion into the high-growth retail and grocery sector. The expansion into new verticals will further drive the competitive landscape in the B2C e-commerce industry over the next three to four years.

E-commerce startups are expected to raise funding from venture capital and private equity firms

To offer smaller retailers a fighting chance in a sector that is dominated by online behemoths like Amazon and Zalando, innovative e-commerce startups are emerging in the sector in Germany. These startups are now seeking funding from venture capital and private equity firms.
  • VisionAI, in October 2023, announced that the firm had €5 million as part of its seed funding round, which was led by HV Capital. The firm, notably, leverages artificial intelligence to provide e-commerce merchants with better search results and cross-selling opportunities.
  • Amazon, for instance, earns significant revenue through its cross-selling and recommendation engine. This is a clear indication that the services offered by VisionAI are relevant for the growth of the e-commerce sector. In the initial 15 months of its operations, the startup has generated a revenue of €1.5 million in sales.
With the fresh capital, the publisher expects VisionAI to invest in product development and business expansion over the medium term. Going forward, the publisher expects more such innovative startups to enter the market in Germany.
