Solid growth for eCommerce in Quebec

The CEFRIO, has just published the last eCommerce index. Over one year, the number of eCommerce buyers has increased by 66% while eCommerce revenue has grown by 35% (reaching 233 million dollars). In november, 20% of Quebec adults have made a purchase on the Internet

It seems that more and more local businesses realize how far behind they are and are considering eCommerce in their business development strategy. This wake-up call is good for the Quebec economy as last year, only 7% of Quebec businesses where offering their products online, living one third of the eCommerce market to US based companies.

Businesses should not rush implementing any eCommerce technology because simply placing a store online won’t bring buyers.
