What was the market size of the retail app industry?
The market size of the retail app industry was $3.8 trillion in 2023, an increase of 8% on the previous year. This is expected to almost double by the end of the decade, led by maturing markets in South-East Asia and Latin America.
Which retail app generates the most revenue?
Amazon is the largest ecommerce company by revenue, generating $574 billion in 2023. Alibaba is the largest in terms of transaction volume, reporting $1.3 trillion GMV last year.
How much retail app revenue originates from China?
China is far ahead of other countries when it comes to retail app spend. It was responsible for over half of spend in 2023. The US generated less than a third of China’s total spend.
Sector overview
Retail played a major role in shaping the early web experience, providing individual vendors and companies with a new way to gain customers. Instead of simply selling to those in an immediate area, the internet provided the tools for people to exchange and purchase from all over the world.
eBay and other c2c services provided web users with the means to exchange goods for cash, with PayPal and other online payments services established to improve the security and verification of these transactions. On the other side, Amazon created a marketplace for “everything”, and have spent the past two decades improving this experience.
Mobile reduced the barriers that still existed between a customer purchasing an item, enabling customers to purchase at any time, anywhere.
In the past five years, we have seen new competition in the retail market come from Chinese-based suppliers. Shein, Temu and TikTok have all been broadly accepted as new forms of ecommerce, offering items for far cheaper than can be found on Amazon or in store.
