UK Online Retail Market Overview and Size
UK
online retail market grew at double digit growth rate in terms of GMV over the
review period 2013-2018. The market growth was supported by the increase in
total smartphone penetration, growth in online shoppers and rise in youth
population. The availability of better deals and offers along with change in
consumer behaviour towards in-store has significantly affected the growth in
the market and has changed the digital landscape in the industry. The market is
currently placed in the growth stage owing to the increasing penetration of
online retail sales during 2019. As more retailers turn online for their
shopping, more and more shops are leaving the high street (i.e. offline stores
in UK). On the other hand, online retail players have become highly competitive
on the basis of personalized experience and social engagement.
UK Online Retail Market Segmentation
By Major Product Categories (Apparel and Footwear, Beauty and
Personal Care, Consumer Appliances and Others): Apparel and Footwear dominated the online retail market as they
have highest demand among both male and female population while traditional
toys and games are the lowest owing to the declining interest of kids towards
traditional games.
By Device (Desktop and Mobile): More than half of the people in UK visit the E-commerce site
via mobile for the purpose of searching about the product whereas, the lesser
proportion of audience actually buy the product via mobile. UK people generally
prefer to go for a desktop and tablet to make the purchase of the product. This
is due to the large display screen available on laptop as compared to mobile,
which facilitates a better image and view of the product.
By Gender (Male and Female): The male segment within European countries is equally active
in terms of online shopping compared to female segment. Though, both male and
female have different product categories to spend being an E-shopper, males
generally prefer to spend more on electronics whereas, the female segment are the
major consumer of apparels and footwear.
By Mode of Payment (Debit+Credit Card, Net Banking and
M-Wallets and Cash on Delivery): With
increasing digitalization coupled with smartphone penetration in the country, UK
consumers were observed to prefer making online payments via debit as well as
credit cards and net banking. As a result, cash on delivery option saw a rapid
decline during 2019.
