The biggest players on the domestic e-commerce market are eMAG and Fashion Says, both part of Dante International group, with RON6.7 billion revenues in 2020, up 47% year-on-year. Last year, Dante International generated net profit worth RON107 million, double the 2019 level.
Next comes Altex, with RON5 billion revenues, and Dedeman with RON9 billion at company level, but ecommerceDB.com ranking takes into account only e-commerce revenues, which stood at $94 million for each of the two players (around RON453 million).
E-commerce growth had a strong impact over the domestic delivery sector, which advanced by around 20% last year. E-commerce was the growth driver of the courier services market. E-commerce has been on an upward trend in recent years, but has boomed during the pandemic.
Last year, the courier services market went beyond the RON5 billion threshold, but the positive trend stalled in the first half of this year amid restriction easing.
