A Simple Tool for Estimating Global E-Commerce Demand

An experienced global e-commerce executive from the Global E-Commerce Leaders Forum (GELF) community generously shared a list of zip codes that represent online orders being shipped to international destinations by freight forwarders and distributors. For example, orders to 32830, in Orlando, FL, are likely to be forwarded to Argentina.

We’d like to make this list available to other retailers and brands interested in assessing demand for international e-commerce.

By cross-referencing both bulk orders (and sometimes onsie/twosie orders) going to these zip codes, you can get a quick read on e-commerce demand for what you sell in China, South Korea, Mexico, Argentina and other markets.

Why are we doing this? The Global E-Commerce Leaders Forum is dedicated to helping retailers and brands take advantage of opportunities to grow their business in international markets.

Of course, if you want to spend a day entirely focused on cross-border and international e-commerce, please consider joining the Global E-Commerce Leaders Forum, February 9, in NYC.
