PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Bright outlook for e-commerce over the forecast period
Retail e-commerce is expected to continue benefiting from the government’s 2030 Digital Strategy, which focuses on citizen engagement, data governance, and the adoption of emerging technologies. The industry will also gain from infrastructure developments, AI-technology adoption to improve engagement, and diversification in offerings.
BNPL will continue to thrive as e-commerce expands
BNPL (Buy Now, Pay Later) finance is anticipated to continue thriving within the e-commerce segment, as service providers like Tamara and Tabby continue to capitalise on growing investments and government support to enhance their offerings. This trend is likely to result in more strategic partnerships aimed at developing integrated business models.
E-commerce competitive landscape likely to face consolidation
The retail e-commerce competitive landscape in Saudi Arabia is expected to become more concentrated as the market matures, resulting in heightened competition. In response to this trend, leading platforms may take advantage of local supply chains and regional similarities to develop effective cross-border e-commerce strategies.
