Sweden ranks high in all of the main e-commerce indices, including the Logistical Performance Index, the Ease of Doing Business Index, and the E-Government Development Index. Internet inclusivity is Sweden’s biggest strength, along with internet penetration of the general population.
GDP continues to increase with a steady growth rate above 2%, indicating that the economy is boosting the e-commerce sector, both domestically as well as cross-border.
