The Japan e-commerce market size reached USD 258.0 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 692.8 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 11.02% during 2025-2033. The growing preferences for convenient shopping experiences, advanced technological infrastructure and high internet penetration, and rising adoption of digital payment methods, such as mobile wallets and online payment platforms, represent some of the key factors driving the market.

E-commerce, also known as electronic commerce, refers to the buying and selling of goods and services over the internet. It comprises various models, including business-to-consumer (B2C), consumer-to-consumer (C2C), and business-to-business (B2B), wherein B2C involves businesses selling directly to individual consumers through online stores, C2C involves individuals selling to other individuals, and B2B e-commerce involves businesses engaging in online trade with other businesses. It is revolutionizing the way business is conducted, offering convenience, accessibility, and a global reach to both consumers and businesses. It eliminates the need for physical presence at brick-and-mortar stores through electronic transactions. It also enables consumers to browse through a wide range of products, compare prices, read reviews, and make purchases with just a few clicks. It helps businesses tap into a global customer base without the limitations of geographical boundaries. Moreover, online operations often require fewer resources compared to traditional retail, leading to cost savings. E-commerce also enables personalized marketing and data-driven decision-making. By analyzing customer behavior and preferences, businesses can tailor their offerings, resulting in a more engaging and relevant shopping experience. As it assists in reducing overhead costs and enhancing customer engagement, the demand for e-commerce is rising in Japan.

Japan E-Commerce Market Trends:

Growth of Mobile Commerce (M-Commerce)

Mobile commerce is experiencing significant growth in Japan, driven by high smartphone penetration and the convenience of mobile applications. According to industry reports, in 2023, Japan had 117.3 million internet users, constituting 94.9 percent of the total population. This is expected to reach 116.4 million i.e. 96.8% of the population, by the year 2028. The rise of mobile commerce has contributed to the overall increase in the Japan e-commerce market share, as more consumers shop via smartphones. In order to capitalize on this trend, retailers are heavily investing in mobile-optimized websites and dedicated apps, ensuring seamless and user-friendly experiences. These enhancements improve navigation and speed while incorporating features like personalized recommendations and secure payment options, ultimately boosting sales and customer satisfaction. The focus on optimizing mobile platforms is crucial for capturing the increasingly mobile-savvy Japanese market.

Personalization and AI-Driven Shopping

In Japan's e-commerce market, AI and machine learning are revolutionizing personalization by analyzing customer behavior and preferences to deliver customized product recommendations and tailored marketing campaigns. This data-driven approach enhances the shopping experience, making it more relevant and engaging for each user. Additionally, AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants are significantly improving customer service by providing instant, 24/7 support, answering queries, and guiding users through the purchasing process. For instance, in March 2024, GMO-Z.com RUNSYSTEM launched an AI-powered shopping assistance application in Japan. The application utilizes the ChatGPT system to act as a virtual sales assistant, interacting with shoppers through voice and eliciting user needs. These virtual tools enhance user experience and increase conversion rates by efficiently addressing customer needs, reducing friction in the buying journey.

Expansion of Cross-Border E-commerce

Japanese consumers are increasingly purchasing from international retailers, particularly from the United States and China, driven by a desire for diverse product offerings and competitive pricing. This trend reflects a growing appetite for unique and innovative products not always available domestically. To support this shift, cross-border platforms are adapting to local preferences by offering Japanese language support, integrating local payment methods, and ensuring efficient shipping options. These localized services enhance the shopping experience, reduce barriers to international purchases, and build consumer trust. As a result, cross-border e-commerce is rapidly expanding in Japan, providing consumers with a wider array of choices and fostering global trade connections. For instance, in September 2024, transcosmos partnered with Global-e in South Korea to help retailers and brands expand their cross-border e-commerce business in over 200 destinations worldwide. By leveraging Global-e's technology and logistics, transcosmos aims to assist businesses in South Korea and Japan in growing their international e-commerce operations.
