The e-commerce industry has been growing steadily over the years, and more and more products can now be purchased with just a few clicks. While some industries are already benefiting from this trend, others still have great potential for development. It's not just the fashion industry in particular that deals are carried out online, but travel is also increasingly being purchased online and furniture is increasingly being delivered to people's homes. No business hours or advice needed, just a click. People also shop most often on the internet, especially in rural areas, due to the wide range of payment options available. However, grocery trading in our online store is an exception and has great potential for smart entrepreneurs.
Meat, bread and vegetables are rarely delivered
The value of grocery purchases in retail stores in Spain amounts to approximately 77 billion euros and in Germany more than 120 billion euros per year, while online stores in this industry are experiencing only low growth rates in most countries. China is the only country where online grocery shopping exceeds 30 million euros per year, followed by the United States with just under 25 million euros. By comparison, Switzerland and Germany together generate just around €2.5 million a year in online grocery shopping, so enterprising entrepreneurs still have plenty of room to develop. *
Exotic Per Click – Language Generated Revenue
Stores specializing in unusual or durable food items have a good opportunity to establish themselves in the market. Most of the time I buy things online that I can't get at the supermarket. A multilingual online store with good sales text is the best foundation for good growth. We work with professional translators and will be happy to help you translate your website or sales text into different languages.
