NEW YORK, Aug. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The global e-commerce market continues to grow at an impressive rate as more and more people are now constantly connected to the internet.

A research report by eMarketer also estimates that the global e-commerce market will approach USD 5 Trillion mark by 2021. In addition, the current pandemic and the social isolation measures intendent to reduce the number of infected caused an increase in demand for essential supplies such as food, medicine, hand sanitizers, tissue, and disinfectants.
