Increasing digitalization and growing trend of online retailing is expected to offer new opportunities in the global Business-to-Business E-commerce market

B2B, or business-to-business, is a type of electronic commerce (E-commerce) in which items, services, or information are traded between businesses rather than between consumers (B2C). When two businesses, such as online retailers and wholesalers, conduct business together, it is called a business-to-business (B2B) transaction. Throughout most B2B business models, every entity profits in the same way, and they often have similar negotiating leverage. B2B e-commerce can take a variety of forms. The following is a list of the most frequent B2B E-commerce models. B2B2C (business-to-business-to-consumer), The easiest approach to describe the B2B2C model is to look at how a manufacturer or distributor interacts with traditional B2B and B2C models. The wholesaler or manufacturer distributes the goods to B2B, which subsequently sells them to the final consumer. In a B2B2C business, the wholesaler or manufacturer approaches the end consumer by partnering with the B2B or selling straight to them. B2B2C e-Commerce undergoes similar developments, primarily through virtual shops, e-commerce websites, and even apps. 

Despite a minor growth dip owing to Covid-19 implications, the global Business-to-Business E-commerce market is expected to recoup growth and register a CAGR over the forecast period.

The COVID-19 pandemic shifted consumer preferences toward online buying, opening up new opportunities. The B2B e-commerce business outlook has been impacted by a growth in the number of orders, changes in customer behaviour, supply chain disruptions, and the closure of physical storefronts. While retail sales fell in 2020, e-commerce sales grew significantly. Several B2B companies are increasingly concentrating on bringing their customers online. Run-of-the-mill purchases including basic transactions with clients requiring no value-added services or the purchase being a simple reorder accounted for a substantial share of B2B sales in North America. However, the complexity of B2B suppliers' products or services works as a substantial impediment to B2B-commerce adoption. Over the projection period, the market will experience a spike as technology advances. Furthermore, the continuous epidemic has compelled some firms to go online in order to serve customers all over the world. Based on the industry, geography, and competition, businesses are still looking for suitable internet channels.

Business-to-business-to-consumer (B2B2C) ecommerce takes out the middleman usually between the B2B organization and the B2C, putting the businesses directly in contact with the consumer. The B2B2C model can best be described by looking at how a wholesaler or manufacturer interacts with traditional B2B and B2C models. While the coronavirus outbreak wreaked havoc around the world, businesses prioritised preventing physical contact while maintaining business continuity. As a result, a number of B2B merchants urged their clients to shop online. For example, Fastparts, a distributor of agricultural machinery parts, is attempting to build a web store to better serve its customers. The customer is aware that the goods is being delivered by a company different than the one from which it was purchased in many B2B2C e-commerce arrangements. Although a buyer may purchase a product via an affiliated blog or website, the goods is distributed and branded by the manufacturer.

Furthermore, increasing internet penetration and the use of devices such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets to access e-commerce websites are driving market expansion. Businesses can conduct business without having a physical presence, saving money on infrastructure, communication, and overhead. An greater propensity for online shopping, particularly among women, as well as the growing effect of social media platforms on purchase patterns, are further driving the industry.
