Market Opportunities and Challenges
Opportunities-
Increasing Internet and smartphone penetration - Electronic commerce can be defined as any transaction that occurs over the internet to purchase products and services. E-commerce income has increased dramatically in recent years, owing mostly to the notable growth in the rate at which people globally have access to the internet. The increasing availability of Internet access allows an increasing number of people all over the world to use online retailing services and take advantage of their many benefits, such as doorstep deliveries, a wide variety of products, and a reduction in the amount of time and effort spent shopping. Furthermore, the increasing availability of cellphones has made it much easier for clients to shop from any location they like. This has resulted in a considerable increase in overall sales and demand for a variety of product categories, including apparel and footwear, consumer electronics, and pharmaceuticals, via global e-commerce networks.
Challenges-
Challenges with Last-Mile Delivery: The final mile of delivery, which stretches from the fulfilment centre to the customer's door, is frequently the most costly and intricate segment of the supply chain. Delivery schedules and costs can be impacted by factors like traffic congestion, difficulties with urban delivery, and the requirement for sustainable delivery solutions.
Problems with Technology Integration: Automation and robotics are examples of technology that can improve fulfilment operations' efficiency, however integrating new technologies into old systems can be difficult and expensive. Compatibility problems, training needs, and installation downtime might present difficulties for e-commerce fulfilment companies.

COVID-19 Impact on Global E-commerce Fulfillment Services Market
COVID-19 began in China and spread throughout the world, bringing the entire world to a halt and resulting in a complete lockdown. A newly discovered coronavirus is the source of the infectious illness Covid-19. During this time, the mortality rate among those over the age of 40 was similarly high over the world. The disease causes severe illness in persons with medical diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic respiratory disease, and so on. Economic and industrial activity was momentarily suspended during the first two quarters of 2020. Almost every production unit that uses sophisticated ceramics, including electrical and electronics, transportation, industrial, chemical, and other end-user industries (excluding medical), has lowered its manufacturing capacity due to a scarcity of labour. The lockout halted global supply networks. This had ramifications on both production and demand for sophisticated ceramics.
