Frost and Sullivan say that that the global B2B ecommerce market will reach $6.7 trillion by 2020 and be worth twice as much as the business to consumer ecommerce market. In contrast, the statistic portal, Statista, predicts that worldwide value of B2B ecommerce will already be over $7.5 trillion* by the end of this year.
Whichever figure is right, international B2B ecommerce is a major business phenomenon that’s growing very quickly.
Looking to B2B Ecommerce in the Cloud
More and more professional buyers now start their purchasing process with worldwide online research. They use their desktop or mobile devices and are increasingly looking for retail quality online buying experiences for their professional purchases. Companies around the world are looking for a fast, efficient and effective way to make the most of these international online sales opportunities.
Many of them are reaching the same conclusion. A flexible and easily customized Cloud-based ecommerce solution like Cloudfy is ideal. When a site can be launched in a matter of weeks, rather than months or years, and can be managed within the business’s budget through a monthly subscription, the traditional barriers to implementation are easily overcome.
