New study: The impact of e-commerce on the German economy

April 9, 2021

In our recent study commissioned by Bundesverband E-Commerce und Versandhandel (Bevh), we document the economic value of e-commerce to the German economy. 

Since the first products were sold online, e-commerce has been evolving rapidly in scope and coverage. Today, it is an increasingly important part of the Germany economy, growing by 14% per annum over the past five years alone.

Our report takes a hard look at the economic footprint of e-commerce on the German economy and offers insightful perspectives on how e-commerce may develop and influence commerce in general going forward.
