THAILAND B2C E-COMMERCE MARKET 2018

MOBILE AND SOCIAL COMMERCE DRIVE THE GROWTH OF ONLINE RETAIL IN THAILAND

The second largest B2C E-Commerce market in Southeast Asia, Thailand is seeing

rapid growth of online retail sales. Both Internet and online buyer penetration rates are on

the rise, contributing to the expansion of digital commerce. According to a forecast cited in

the yStats.com report, more than one-quarter of Thailand’s population is expected to shop

online in 2022, rising by several percentage points from 2017.

The top two market trends in Thai B2C E-Commerce are mobile and social shopping.

Thailand occupies the leading position in the region by share of Internet users going online

via smartphone, and the second rank by mobile share of traffic to E-Commerce websites,

according to 2017 data cited by yStats.com. As a result, M-Commerce is expected to

contribute nearly two-thirds of online retail sales by 2021, up from less than half in 2017.

Furthermore, Thai consumers are among the world’s top social buyers, with more than 50%

of online shoppers making purchases through social networks like Facebook and Instagram.

The most popular product categories purchased on these platforms are lower-value items

such as clothing, footwear and beauty products, while electronics and appliances are

purchased more frequently from established E-Commerce sites.

Lazada is the top online shopping destination in Thailand, maintaining a clear lead in

terms of online shoppers’ preference, according to surveys referenced in the yStats.com

report. In second rank is Shopee.co.th, a division of Singapore-based Sea Ltd. Furthermore,

11street is a fast growing player counting over half a million customers and thousands of

sellers on its marketplace. In 2018, competition in Thai B2C E-Commerce could become

more intense as the country’s largest retail operator Central Group and China’s top online

retailer JD.com join forces for the launch a new online shopping platform backed by a

comprehensive E-Commerce ecosystem.

REPORT-SPECIFIC SAMPLE CHARTS

GENERAL METHODOLOGY OF OUR MARKET REPORTS Secondary Market Research

The reports are compiled based on secondary market research.

Secondary research is information gathered from previously published

sources. Our reports are solely based on information and data acquired

from national and international statistical offices, industry and trade

associations, business reports, business and company databases,

journals, company registries, news portals and many other reliable

sources. By using various sources we ensure maximum objectivity for all

obtained data. As a result, companies gain a precise and unbiased

impression of the market situation.

Cross referencing of data is conducted in order to ensure

validity and reliability.

The source of information and its release date are provided on

every chart. It is possible that the information contained in one chart is

derived from several sources. If this is the case, all sources are mentioned

on the chart.

The reports include mainly data from the last 12 months prior

to the date of report publication. Exact publication dates are mentioned in

every chart.

Definitions

The reports take into account a broad definition of B2C E-

Commerce, which might include mobile commerce. As definitions may

vary among sources, exact definition used by the source (if available) is

included at the bottom of the chart.

Chart Types

Our reports include text charts, pie charts, bar charts, rankings,

line graphs and tables. Every chart contains an Action Title, which

summarizes the main idea/finding of the chart and a Subtitle, which

provides necessary information about the country, the topic, units or

measures of currency, and the applicable time period(s) to which the data

refers. With respect to rankings, it is possible that the summation of all

categories amounts to more than 100%. In this case, multiple answers were

possible, which is noted at the bottom of the chart.

Report Structure

Reports are comprised of the following elements, in the following

order: Cover page, preface, legal notice, methodology, definitions, table of

contents, management summary (summarizing main information

contained in each section of report) and report content (divided into

sections and chapters). When available, we also include forecasts in our

report content. These forecasts are not our own; they are published by

reliable sources. Within Global and Regional reports, we include all major

developed and emerging markets, ranked in order of importance by using

evaluative criteria such as sales figures.

Notes and Currency Values

If available, additional information about the data collection, for

example the time of survey and number of people surveyed, is provided in

the form of a note. In some cases, the note (also) contains additional

information needed to fully understand the contents of the respective data.

When providing information about amounts of money, local

currencies are most often used. When referencing currency values in the

Action Title, the EUR values are also provided in brackets. The conversions

are always made using the average currency exchange rate for the

respective time period. Should the currency figure be in the future, the

average exchange rate of the past 12 months is used.
