Insight
For the year to May 2013, Australians spent around $13.7 billion with online retailers. This is equivalent to 6.1% of the spending in the traditional bricks & mortar retail sector (excluding cafés, restaurants and takeaway food for a like-to-like comparison) in the year to April 2013.
Online sales growth eased back to +18% yoy in May, following a strong April boost from the Mother’s Day ‘Click Frenzy’ promotion.
