The global pandemic has led to a rapid adoption of e-commerce around the world, with Europe being no exception. As a matter of fact, 74% of European internet users shopped online in 2021 – the highest we have witnessed in a decade. While e-commerce is sweeping the region, brick-and-mortar stores are also seeing an increased food traffic, especially during the period(s) leading up to the holiday season last year.

Even as the world adapts to a “new normal”, the COVID-19 has left behind some lingering effects on the global supply chain, bringing about many new challenges for retailers worldwide. Having said that, the “peak season 2022 will not probably not be as dramatic as what we have seen during the hot times in the last two years”, according to Wolfgang Lehmacher, Supply Chain & Technology Expert at Parcel Monitor.
