“Our data shows that brands that have been able to pivot away from physical stores and double down on digital channels to find significant growth amid the Covid-19 outbreak,” Tommy Kelly, CEO of eShopWorld, said in a press release.
In June so far, cross-border apparel and footwear sales have seen significant growth, and our May overall sales volumes were above those seen during the peak pre-holiday Black Friday period. We expect this strong growth to continue as consumers around the world keep shopping from home due to concerns about the ongoing pandemic.”

For the June 1-15 period, the top three markets were Chile (up 379 %), Mexico (up 204 %) and the Russian Federation (up 159 %).
The company has seen its strong volume growth in early 2020 accelerate due to the Covid-19 outbreak.
