Europeโ€™s ecommerce market may look fragmented, but the power is concentrated.

More than 200 marketplaces compete across the continent, yet a handful of giants dominate traffic, sales, and seller attention.

By 2026, marketplaces are expected to drive nearly 70% of Europeโ€™s โ‚ฌ358B cross-border ecommerce market, led by Amazon, eBay, Allegro, Zalando, and Temu.

Europe isnโ€™t one marketโ€”itโ€™s dozens.

Who wins in the end? Wins the brand which expands first by choosing the right marketplace for your category, logistics, and customer trust, not assuming one platform unlocks the entire continent.
