Additionally, there is a growing trend towards mobile commerce, with more people using their smartphones to make purchases.
Local special circumstances: Uruguay has a small population of just over 3 million people, which limits the size of the eCommerce market. However, the country has a high level of internet penetration, with over 70% of the population having access to the internet. This has created a favorable environment for eCommerce companies to thrive. Additionally, Uruguay has a stable political and economic environment, which has attracted foreign investment in the eCommerce sector.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: Uruguay has a strong and stable economy, with a high level of income per capita compared to other countries in the region. This has led to a growing middle class with higher purchasing power, which has contributed to the growth of the eCommerce market.
