Ecommerce

Gbogbo ọrọ náà

Shopping has changed more in the last two decades than in the previous two centuries. A customer in Lagos can now browse a London retailer at midnight, pay with a tap, and receive the parcel within days. E-commerce has rewritten the rules of where, when, and how goods change hands.

In this lesson you will explore the key characteristics of e-commerce, including website-based selling, the bricks-and-clicks model, and delivery logistics. You will examine how e-commerce reshapes supply chains, opens national and international markets, and affects the environment. You will also consider what makes a good e-commerce location and why it differs so sharply from traditional retail.

Walk down any high street and you will see familiar names that have closed their physical doors, replaced by online-only rivals or by their own websites. E-commerce is not simply another sales channel; it has reshaped entire industries, from book publishing to grocery delivery. Understanding how it works, and who wins or loses, is central to modern commerce.
