Expansion of E-shops abroad can be extremely complicated. Help comes with the omnichannel solution
When an e-shopper, manufacturer or some other business person decides to step out of their comfort zone and cross the borders of local markets, many challenges await them. Expansion into Europe is considerably complex, because this continent is not homogenous, many different nations and cultures are located here and every market has different customs thus even European E-commerce is quite fragmented.
