purchases,<strong> topped only by China and the US.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>According to new research from cross-border e-commerce technology and services provider, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eshopworld.com\/\">eShopWorld<\/a> (ESW), <strong>20% of non-UK consumers have shopped from UK retail sites in the past year,<\/strong> cementing the UK's reputation as a leader in online retail.<\/p>\n<p>The figures have been taken from the\u00a0<i>Global Voices 2021: Cross-Border Shopper Insights <\/i>survey of more than 22,000 consumers across eleven countries, which also revealed that the top five markets for cross-border purchases from the UK were <strong>Australia\u00a0(37%), the United States (29%), Germany (26%), France (24%) and Singapore (23%).\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While other markets were lower, such as\u00a0Mexico (6%), Russia (8%), Chile (10%), Turkey (16%) and Canada (17%), ESW said this demonstrated demand and room for growth for UK retailers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"FWBodyTestimonial\"><span lang=\"EN-IE\">The high percentage of cross-border purchasing from the UK<strong> reflected the desirability of British brands and products to global consumers,<\/strong> commented Tommy Kelly, CEO of ESW.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"FWBodyTestimonial\">\u201cOur survey data shows that that people are increasingly embracing international e-commerce as <strong>more retailers and brands eliminate friction by offering convenience within the buying journey,<\/strong> and adding capabilities such as click and collect, return to store and guaranteed delivery date.<\/p>\n<p class=\"FWBodyTestimonial\">\"People are still<strong> restricted in their ability to travel and shop in person around the world<\/strong>, and cross-border ecommerce continues to be an attractive alternative for these shoppers,\" said.<\/p>\n<p>Kelly added that there was a particular opportunity for UK e-commerce businesses to sell to markets such as <strong>Russia, Turkey and Mexico since they are high spenders on international e-commerce<\/strong> but, at the moment, spend relatively little on UK websites.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur research shows shoppers in Russia, Mexico and Turkey are spending far more on average on cross-border purchases making a <strong>clear business case for UK retailers and brands to look beyond their traditional markets<\/strong> to tap the potential revenue latent in these emerging markets.<\/p>\n<p>\"To reap the benefits of this demand, <strong>retailers need to offer localised shopping experiences<\/strong> where e-commerce customers in these markets feel as if they are receiving the same level of service and convenience they would enjoy if shopping locally,\u201d Kelly said.<\/p>\n<p>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<\/p>\n<p><strong>TheIndustry.fashion is staging an exclusive digital round table
