The demand in
online retail market of South Korea has inclined at a substantial growth rate
even after the economic slowdown in 2008. This demand has enhanced due to the
increased usage of high speed internet, rising smart phone penetration and high
proportion of old aged people in the country. These factors are expected to
lead the growth in online retail backed by the improvements in the payment
gateways, better packaging and delivering options. During the
period 2009-2014, online retail market in South Korea has expanded at a
substantial CAGR of 17.7%, which has marked the gross merchandise value at USD ~
billion during 2014.
According to the
research report, the South Korea online retail market will grow at a
considerable CAGR rate thus exceeding USD 66.2 billion by
2019 due to the rising income level and growing influence of social
media with increasing demand for clothing,
fashion products, electronics and beauty products by a large number of middle
aged people in the country who wish to upkeep with the trends and stay
up-to-date in line with developments in the country.
“While, rising disposable income, hike in middle aged population
and increasing number of internet and smartphone users in the country will result
in increased revenue from online retail in South Korea, Cyber crimes and frauds, higher
competition and customers’ reluctance to pay high amounts online are few of the
major challenges which will affect the growth of this industry in the future”, according
