The consumer is more tilted towards the wide availability of products in the online sites at the ease of their home. The surveys conducted for the e-commerce segments show that online sales are growing exponentially in 2024.
According to surveys conducted in 2024 for e-commerce, consumers prefer to buy electronics from online stores. There is a growing prevalence of electronics sales online due to easy convenience.

It is followed by the hardware and furniture category, the highest-selling product consumers prefer. Twenty-eight percent of consumers prefer to purchase hardware and furniture products in 2024. Experts suggest that online sales are expected to grow over time with 44, 31, and 22 percent increases in sales of products over the years for electronics, hardware, and furniture, respectively. The data shows that the food category accounts for only 5 percent of consumers interested in purchasing online in 2023. This may be due to consumers' preference for fresh foods over packaged goods.
