Ecommerce is more popular in Shanghai than in Europe

Today, shoppers in Shanghai are now turning towards online shopping for a whole variety of reasons, ranging from value of money to convenience and a lack of crowds. Surveys have shown that Shanghai shoppers are increasingly choosing this retail shopping option; more so than their European and American counterparts.

A survey was released earlier this month and was conducted amongst 150 white collar workers in Shanghai. The study showed that nearly 25 percent of this group has either bought drinks, groceries or even personal care products from online supermarkets in the past few weeks, thus showing the rise in popularity of online stores.

Online shoppers in Shanghai have said that one of the main reasons why they shop online is because it provides them with a better shopping environment because of the lack of crowds. It also provides them with a wider range of products to choose from, it is convenient and gives good value for money.
