As of 2024, the percentage of individuals in Scotland who ordered goods or services online for private use more than a year ago or never ordered is projected to steadily decrease from 10.5% in 2024 to 8.6% in 2028. This indicates a growing adoption of online shopping, continuing from previous years where internet shopping was already gaining momentum. By the end of the forecast period, the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests an average yearly decline, reflecting an increased comfort and reliance on digital platforms for retail in Scotland.
Future trends to watch for include:
