E-commerce beats the double-digitbarrier in national retail
01/26/2022
In 2021, digital commerce represented 11.3% of all sales in the restricted retail trade, which excludes vehicles, parts, and construction materials. Last year, the growth of e-commerce reached 18%, according to the Brazilian Association of Electronic Commerce (Abcomm) monitoring, from 9,500 companies in the sector. The data are being compiled and will be released later this month.
Economist Fábio Bentes, from the National Confederation of Commerce, said that 2021 did mark a new level of participation of e-commerce in restricted retail. Bentes, who monitors collecting data from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics and the Federal Revenue, stresses that he had already seen the participation of 10.8%, but not yet with the year-end closed.
