In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic affected industries across sectors. E-commerce as an industry saw a significant uptick in demand during these times. Moreover, the last quarter was extremely interesting, as it showed the real reflection of changing consumer behaviour, and highlighted the actual shift to online shopping even after the lockdown was lifted. This report talks about emerging sectors and changing consumer preferences. Given the rising number of online shoppers and the maturing ecosystem, this report presents a point-of-view on the rising number of D2C brands and important technology solutions needed to thrive in the everevolving e-commerce ecosystem.
