Asendia - the Joint Venture between La Poste and Swiss Post - has agreed on a sales partnership with Israel Post for e-commerce solutions to this market. This partnership will unlock potential for retailers looking to expand their commerce to Israel, a destination with many opportunities.
BERNE, SWITZERLAND - August 30, 2016 - Being ranked third in the world for online purchases, the Israeli e-commerce market offers an interesting and enticing marketplace for international businesses, with an expected annual revenue growth of 8.26%, which will result in a market volume of 4'917 mUSD by 2020. 91% of the Israeli internet users have purchased items online, resulting in three million packages sent per month in 2015. Its highly urbanized population of 8 million produced one of the highest global smartphone penetrations of 75% in 2015, with one of three online purchases carried out via smartphone. These strong and growing figures illustrate the opportunities for retailers in the Israeli e-commerce market.
In order to support retailers seeking to expand to Israel, Asendia and Israel Post have agreed on a global sales partnership for e-commerce solutions. Thanks to this agreement, retailers will have access to very competitive and qualitative solutions with the service "Fully-Tracked Goods" to Israel.
