The 2019 B2C E-Commerce Market in Africa 2019: Rapid B2C E-Commerce Sales Growth Projected for 2020

DUBLIN, July 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Africa B2C E-Commerce Market 2019" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Rapid B2C E-Commerce sales growth in Africa projected for 2020

E-Commerce currently accounts for a small percentage share of total retail sales in Africa. This indicates a major potential for future growth, with the forecasts cited in the report projecting an eleven-digit dollar value for Africa's online retail in 2020.

Most of this growth comes from the increasing adoption of online shopping practices by Africa's emerging consumers. Mobile technology plays an important role in this process, powering a lion's share of Internet connections in Africa's households.

South Africa and Nigeria lead the regional online retail landscape

Africa's largest B2C E-Commerce markets include South Africa and Nigeria. In both countries, more than 50% of Internet users shop online, whereby South Africa is significantly ahead of Nigeria in terms of Internet penetration. Another regional leader is Egypt, where online retail sales register high growth rates of above 30% as of 2019.

In terms of local competition, the leading companies in these three markets include Nigeria-based Jumia and South Africa's Takealot. These and other regional players face strong competition from cross-border online shopping platforms such as AliExpress and Amazon, which are gaining popularity among digital consumers in Africa.
