The UK has the most advanced eCommerce market in Europe so it’s no surprise that the majority of UK shoppers are regular eCommerce users.

In 2021, online sales for retail alone made up almost 30% of overall retail sales in the country. The estimated annual revenue for retail sales in the UK in 2021 was around 120 billion GBP.
