Providing information about ETİD’s activities and the sector, Ekmekçi said, “ETID was born 13 years ago with the necessity of e-commerce in Turkey to become a sector, when the managers of the leading companies in the sector came together. As ETİD, which was established to meet the representation needs of the sector, we meet the e-commerce share of more than 95 percent with our members today.
As an association, our main mission is to be the pioneer of the sector, to ensure healthy growth and correct regulations. Before the pandemic, Turkey’s e-commerce rate was growing by 35 percent. In the pandemic, there was a growth of 66 percent.If we think only on the basis of product sales, we can talk about 100 percent growth.
The pandemic has affected all companies and awakened the e-commerce culture. Products that could never be found became easily accessible, and in this context, fast shipping systems continued to develop. Companies suddenly found themselves 5 years ahead. Right now There are hardly any companies without e-commerce. we can say. Sales from virtual marketplaces in Turkey grew by over 100 percent last year. Today, more than 100 thousand SMEs are selling from market places. We estimate that more than 70 percent of e-commerce in Turkey is through marketplaces.
We also support healthy and competitive growth here. In this regard, we support the work of the Ministry of Commerce in the new economic reforms action plan. We think that the rules on which seller and which product will appear more advantageous than the other in virtual marketplaces will be clear and transparent. We anticipate that a competitive environment will develop with the new regulation.
We foresee that the e-commerce sector, which has been on the rise due to all these regulations and the pandemic, will continue to grow until the end of the year, and that the transaction volume will exceed 400 billion TL at the end of the year with the investments to be made for consumer demands.”
