European B2C e-commerce is developing extremely well. In 2010 Europe overtook the USA, the biggest market in the world until then. In 2012 European B2C e-commerce, including online retail goods and services such as online travel bookings, vents and other tickets, downloads etc., grew by 19.0% to reach €311.6 bn. The EU28 reached €276.5 bn, or 88.7% of total European e-sales, a growth of 18.1% .
Growth rates in mature countries such as the UK, the Netherlands, Sweden and Norway are slowing down to around 10-15%, while Germany, France, Italy and Spain are still increasing by about 20-25% and more as the number of Internet-users and shoppers continues to grow.
