Online retail orders weekly growth rate in Latin America 2020, by country
Following the COVID-19 outbreak in Latin America and the implementation of measures across the region to contain its spread, online retail orders soared in Mexico, Colombia and Peru in late March 2020. In Brazil, however, the highest increase in e-retail orders was recorded at the end of February, right before the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the novel coronavirus a global pandemic. During the last week of February, e-retail orders in the South American country grew by 35 percent compared to the same period in the previous year.
