For the past few years, worldwide experts have been pointing to the rapid development of Polish eCommerce market while drawing attention to the nearly 30% increase in its value in 2012, as compared to the previous year. Today its value is estimated at record EUR 6,5 bn, consistent with its trends of over 20% growth year to year. The growing popularity of online shopping, including mobile transactions, wider access to broadband Internet, dissemination of courier services and non-cash payments, as well as personalization of offers and a higher attention to quality of service are some of the dominant factors contributing to the fast development of eCommerce in Poland.
“Now is the optimal time to leverage the flow of observed growth trends in order to reap the rewards of current dynamic market development. In addition, Poland represents a highly strategic geographical location for logistics and facilitation of further expansion into the Eastern European and Russian market. This is a highly attractive proposition for western players seeking to expand their e-businesses into the Polish market and beyond.” – says Piotr Jarosz, Editor in Chief of the Report, CEO of Dotcom River.
