Indonesia has the largest population in Southeast Asia, by far, and an e-commerce penetration that is still very low, making it one of the hottest e-commerce markets in the world. Attracting both global and local companies’ interests, Indonesia now has a fast-growing e-commerce scene poised to become a global powerhouse.
Still inferior to 1% of all sales in Indonesia, e-commerce is expected to expand in high double digits in the coming years in Indonesia. Though the market is not as mature as e-commerce in Malaysia or Singapore, the Indonesian population of more than 260 million, makes the absolute numbers of growth in the country vertiginous, with millions of new online shoppers every year.
