But there’s a twist: OOH success can look different across the globe! In this deep-dive, we look at Lithuania and Brazil: from a “locker nation” to community-driven parcel shops, culture shapes everything   Find out how two parcel delivery leaders DPD Lietuva and Jadlog Logística adapt to local needs 👉 https://lnkd.in/dMbDdsfW #eShopping #Ecommerce #OutOfHomeDelivery #LogisticsInnovation #OOH

📅 When did your #BlackFriday planning begin? For some, it starts months ahead. For others, it’s a last-minute sprint. Either way, this weekend has become one of the most important moments in the #ecommerce calendar, especially for #Aficionados, the shoppers who buy most frequently and set expectations for everyone else. How early did your business start preparing?

🌏 What happens when the world shops all at once? #SinglesDay - today, 11 November - is the biggest online shopping event on the planet, reaching around $156 billion in global sales in recent years. It began in #China, but its influence stretches far beyond Asia. 48% of European #eshoppers now buy from China, looking for prices, products and choice they can’t always find at home. Singles’ Day is a reflection of China's continued e-commerce success, and of how Aficionados, the most active shoppers, are driving global habits. It’s proof that shoppers think globally! ➡️ Explore how cross-border shopping is changing e-commerce habits worldwide: https://lnkd.in/ekX5RP9a

Singular Goes Borderless Ahead of the Peak Shopping Season For Europe's heaviest online shoppers, the Aficionados, the coming weeks mark the start of the most anticipated retail period of the year. These seasoned buyers know their way around an online basket and demand serious choice, often looking beyond the confines of their home country for truly unique finds. That’s precisely why Singular, our discovery platform, has just made its biggest move yet, launching unlimited cross-border shopping. This step connects multiple European markets, bringing unique products to a huge, international audience. Singular's ambition is to offer a borderless purchasing experience that champions national excellence. For example, a shopper in Croatia can easily fall on and purchase a trendy piece from a merchant in the Netherlands. This is a seamless experience that responds to e-shoppers’ hunger for depth of selection. And for merchants, it means unparalleled visibility and potential business growth. This international expansion is accelerated by the collaboration of our delivery experts: DPD Nederland joining the project just last week as our seventh market, alongside BRT Corriere Espresso in Italy, SEUR in Spain, DPD Croatia , DPD Slovenija, DPD France and Chronofresh also in France. These companies are the delivery backbone of Singular, ensuring every discovery, no matter the origin, arrives quickly and safely.

🛍️ E-tailers! Do you know who your most active online #customers are? They’re the ones driving most of your orders: shopping across more categories, expecting flexibility and coming back time and again. The top 15% of e-shoppers, known as #Aficionados, receive about 7 parcels a month and influence what others expect from online retail. Free #delivery still tops their list, but what really keeps them loyal is clarity: precise information, flexible options and delivery partners they can trust. As we move into the busiest time of the year, understanding their habits means understanding the standard your business is measured against. ➡️ See how to meet your most engaged customers’ expectations: https://lnkd.in/ekX5RP9a

📱 Are you ready for the social #commerce era? Social platforms are no longer just about inspiration. They are driving real conversions. TikTok, for example, now has a higher shopping conversion rate than Instagram at 34%. For your business, this means that discovery, influence and purchase can all happen just after one scroll. In the social commerce era, your customers’ entire shopping journey might start and finish on #socialmedia. To capitalise on this, creating engaging, authentic content that connects with your shoppers directly where they spend their time is essential.

📈 The lines between shoppers and sellers are blurring. 72% of e-shoppers buy or sell on #C2C platforms, and nearly half do so every month. This is about more than making wardrobe space. It’s about embracing the circular economy and even stepping into entrepreneurship. C2C is popular among #GenZ in particular, who see it as a convenient and sustainable option - two of the things that matter most to them. For businesses, the C2C boom is a sign that your customers are looking to make affordable purchases that support a responsible economy.
