Although physical stores remain the leading sales channel for edible groceries, estimates show growth in the digital segment in the coming years. From 174 billion U.S. dollars in 2021, online sales in this category are expected to increase to over 275 billion in 2026. That year, e-commerce is forecast to account for about 7.6 percent of all grocery sales worldwide.
