Orderin CEO Gives 5 Simple Ways SMMEs Can Become Competitive in eCommerce

Thembani Biyam, CEO of Orderin SA. A few years ago, the majority of South Africans had never made a single purchase online. Today, the local e-commerce market has experienced a massive boom as lockdown restrictions aimed at curbing the spread of COVID-19, made online shopping feel like the safer, and sometimes the only, option for consumers.

South Africa’s eCommerce Market to Reach $3.5 Billion in 2020, says Researchers

eCommerce has broken barriers as a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic’s lockdown restrictions.
