eCommerce in the Netherlands
Despite its modest population size, the Netherlands is home to an eCommerce market that has expanded rapidly in recent years where almost 84% of people shop online. Currently, online sales account for about 9.6% of the country’s total retail industry and it’s predicted that by 2023, Dutch consumers will spend on average $1,924 online.
As more and more locals hop on the eCommerce bandwagon, cross-border shipping is rapidly increasing, accounting for 15% of the country’s eCommerce sales. In 2016 alone, the Netherlands imported products worth over $310 billion from countries like China, Germany, Belgium, Russia and Luxembourg.
