Romania’s e-commerce sector accounted for 3.32% of the country’s GDP in 2024, showing steady growth but still trailing behind the European average of around 5%, according to data from the Bulgarian eCommerce Association.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In Central and Eastern Europe, Greece leads the region with e-commerce contributing 7.87% to its GDP, while Bulgaria lags behind with just 2.34%.<\/p>\n
Despite being below the EU average, Romania is closing the gap faster than some of its neighbors.<\/p>\n
“While e-commerce’s contribution to GDP remains stable at around 5% across Europe, we see significant room for growth in Bulgaria, a faster recovery in Romania, and above-average development in Greece,” said Nikola Ilchev<\/strong>, founder of the Balkan eCommerce Summit.<\/p>\n More insights into regional e-commerce trends, including traffic, sales, and consumer behavior, will be presented at the Balkan eCommerce Summit in Sofia on April 29-30. The event will bring together top companies from marketing and logistics, payment services, banks, and leaders from the FinTech industry, along with SaaS and AI solutions, in a large-scale exhibition featuring over 200 companies.<\/p>\n irina.marica@romania-insider.com<\/p>\n (Photo source: PR)<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Romania’s e-commerce sector accounted for 3.32% of the country’s GDP in 2024, showing steady growth but still trailing behind the European average of around 5%, according to data from the Bulgarian eCommerce Association.\u00a0 In Central and Eastern Europe, Greece leads the region with e-commerce contributing 7.87% to its GDP, while Bulgaria lags behind with just […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3617","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ofero.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3617","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ofero.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ofero.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ofero.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3617"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ofero.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3617\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ofero.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3617"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ofero.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3617"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ofero.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3617"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
