In 2023, Germany's e-commerce landscape showed signs of potential recovery, following 2022’s sales slump as the country emerged from the pandemic. A stronger return to stores, ongoing economic volatility, and low consumer confidence stemming from the rising cost of living all continued to work against e-commerce. Thus, value sales continued to fall, despite the performance of Amazon leading up to the Christmas period.
