    Growth Drivers

    With an expected increase in cross-border buyers (from 52.9 million in 2017 to 68.6 million in 2020), driven by m-commerce, product choice and cheaper price, client can expect an increase in cross-border shipments in 2018.

    • Presently in the US, mobile devices account for 19 percent of all US retail e-commerce sales. This is expected to increase by 27 percent by 2018
    • Nearly half of the US consumers have made cross-border purchase in 2016, with a mobile penetration rate of 103.1 percent
    • Due to the growth in mobile commerce, online purchases have become much more easier, thereby saving time

    Price 

    • A country's cross -border merchandise correlates with its average price of goods
    • The Price Level Index (PLI) expresses the price level of a given country relative to another. With higher PLI,  there is higher opportunity for domestic shoppers to do cross-border shopping
    • Currently, the PLI for US is 113 and US consumers mostly shop from UK, China and Canada, whose price level indices are 108, 59 and 107 respectively

    Product choice

    • Consumers shop from other borders because of the large availability of product choices, which is not available in their country
    • Large domestic markets such as Germany, the US and UK, inhibit the need for shopping abroad

    Market Challenges and Constraints

    A major challenge the client could face in cross-border e-commerce shipments is logistics related issues such as shipping costs, long delivery time,  import regulations, and return logistics. client should consider engaging with a supplier who will be able to offer a solution to overcome these challenges.

    Shipping and Delivery Challenges

    • International shipments include  various costs such as border tolls, brokerage fees, duties, inspection fees, storage fees, tariffs and taxes
    • As each country has its own set of regulations, it further introduces challenges in cross-border logistics
    • With ease of convenience of e-commerce, consumers expect shorter delivery times, real time tracking, security on delivery, etc.
    • Difficulty in dealing with reverse logistics, last mile delivery is also one of the major logistics issues with cross-border trade

    Payment Issue

    • The payment options preferred by the consumers vary based on the countries
    • For example, in Japan, a local payment method named “Konbini” accounts for a sixth of e-commerce payments; on the other hand, Spain uses Visa, MasterCard, and American Express, while consumers in Asia prefer OD options
    • Hence, accepting the payment options as per each country's requirement is a challenge
