Marketplaces' Share of Global B2B E-Commerce on the Expansion Course, 2020-2024 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global B2B E-Commerce Marketplaces 2020" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

B2B E-Commerce marketplaces favored by B2B buyers

According to B2B buyer surveys referenced in the report, E-Commerce marketplaces are the top channels used for corporate purchasing. As these platforms continue to attract more B2B companies, their GMV is projected to expand through 2024, growing faster than overall B2B E-Commerce sales. As a result, B2B E-Commerce marketplaces are expected to increase their market share by a factor of four between 2018 and 2024.

Top two B2B E-Commerce marketplaces

Just like in B2C E-Commerce, Alibaba and Amazon fight for the world's top rank among B2B online selling platforms. Both companies are making significant progress, with Amazon Business achieving an 11-digit figure in annualized sales, and Alibaba managing to gather more than 10 million B2B buyers on its platform. The two companies also continue to expand internationally, adding more countries in 2019.
