Among product types, the fashion segment held a dominant position in 2016 and is expected to retain its dominance throughout the forecast period.

The segment was valued at US$ 347.50 billion in 2016 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 13.43% over the forecast period.
Key Takeaways from the Market:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest market for online retail during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the high online retail sales in China, which is the world’s largest online retail market. A large population coupled with high internet penetration rate in China has resulted in the creation of a large online retail market. According to the Chinese Ministry of Commerce, the growth rate of online retail in the country in 2017 was 32% over the previous year. The major market players in China are Alibaba Group, Tencent Holdings Ltd. and JD.com Inc. The region is also host to high growth economies such as India and Indonesia. Currently, the market penetration is low with online retail at 8.6% of total retail sales in the region. Although the high population of these countries has made them an attractive investment destination for industry players. However, poorly developed logistics and supply chain may hinder market growth in the region. The emergence of local players in a competitive market environment has profited consumers due to the attractive pricing of products by market players. In India, Flipkart and Amazon Inc. are offering heavily discounted products in order to secure market share in the country. Seasonal sales such as Big Billion Day and Great Indian Sale are modelled after Black Friday and Singles Day in U.S. and China respectively.
