What is E-Commerce?

Electronic Commerce, or e-commerce, is buying and selling on-line. There exists no widely accepted definition for electronic commerce. However in general, e-commerce can be defined as any transaction that involves an on-line commitment to purchase or to sell a good or service, and that results in the import or export of this good or service.

The term E-business is usually applied in a broader sense. It includes buying and selling on-line, but also other aspects of on-line business activity, such as purchasing, tracking inventory, managing production and handling logistics, customer support services, supply chain management and collaborative engineering.

Benefits of E-Commerce

For suppliers, main benefits of E-Commerce are the possibility to automate and cut costs in repetitive processes, to reach a wider market, to source products from a wider supplier-base, and to be able to respond to customer queries quickly and cheaply.

The lower cost base enables suppliers to price more competitively, and customers to purchase at lower prices . Consumers also benefit from e-commerce as normal business hours constraints do not exist any more with online access and they can choose and purchase from a bigger market.
