German B2C E-Commerce market continues strong upward trend
Hamburg-based market research firm yStats.com presents in its latest “Germany B2C E-Commerce Report 2011” interesting facts about trends, revenues, customers and competitors of the German E-Commerce market.
First, it must be noted that Germany has the largest online population in the EU: by the end of 2010 already more than 50 million Germans were using the internet. As a result, the number of online purchases continued to grow. The yStats.com report shows that in 2010 almost 60 % of the entire German population had ordered goods or services for private use online compared to the EU average of only 40 %.
Growing German B2C E-Commerce revenue
Forecasts predict double digit growth for B2C E-Commerce revenue from 2010 to 2011, following the trend from 2009 to 2010, where revenue had already shown a strong increase. According to the “Germany B2C E-Commerce Report 2011” by yStats.com in 2010 “clothing and sporting goods” was the most popular category for online purchases - followed by the categories “books, magazines, e-learning resources”, “films/music” and “household items”.
OTTO Group, Brands4friends and Groupon successful online
Additionally, the yStats.com report provides information about the retailers dominating this sector: The OTTO Group (including its subsidiaries) is the leading B2C E-Commerce retailer in terms of B2C E-Commerce revenue in Germany, followed by Amazon.
