Things are looking well for the biggest online shops in Austria. The top 250 can look forward to double-digit growth. And the ten biggest ecommerce websites from Austria account for almost half of the top 250’s total online sales.

Ecommerce in Austria is still performing well, probably this year also helped by the outbreak of the coronavirus and the accompanying measurements.

Every year, EHI Retail Institute and Statista analyze the 250 top-selling business-to-consumer online shops in Austria. This year’s study shows that the Austrian ecommerce industry is going through a fundamental and structural change, which is driven by exponential technological development. That’s what Rainer Will, CEO of Handelsverband Österreich, says.

The Austrian ecommerce industry is going through a fundamental structural change.

Ecommerce share of more than 11%

The Covid-19 outbreak has led to a boost in digitization. Will thinks that at the end of this year, Austria will, for the first time ever, have an ecommerce share that’s over 11 percent of total retail sales.

The top 250 of online retailers in Austria saw its total turnover grow from 3.17 billion to 3.60 billion euros last year. And the market concentration remains high, with the current situation being that the top 10 of online shops in Austria accounts for almost half (49.7 percent to be price) of the top 250’s online sales.
