As we know that technology is marking its presence in every field, and e-commerce is also not left untouched. It looks like yesterday that Brick and mortar stores turned into online ones, and now mobile apps are gaining popularity when it comes to easy shopping.
As per Forbes insights, out of a Global population of 7.6 billion, over four billion people are Internet users.
And amongst them, the number of mobile phone users have increased to 62.5 percent of the Global population. Consequently, Businesses are actively focusing on Mobile applications as much as on mobile websites.
The result being, apart from Big brands like Puma or Nike and food chains as Dominos and KFC, small or mid-sized business houses are also following the trend and contributing in mobile app industry growth.
These days you can even find a local cafe owner or a spa outlet nearby in your town having their own mobile app, and they are always ahead of those who ignore this trend in marketing their businesses.
