E-Commerce Market in China Far Behind USA

Compared to USA, China is still in the early stage of e-commerce online shopping development. Base on statistics from enfodesk, in 2009, the online e-commerce market in China reached 252.7 billion RMB (about $37.7b USD). The market scale in USA was $134.9 billion 3 times greater than China. However, the population in China is 4 times greater than USA. This leaves a significant opportunity for online merchants to capture the worlds largest internet population.
