According to an analysis by the Brazilian Electronic Commerce Association (ABComm), Brazilian e-commerce is expected to reach a revenue of R$ 91.5 billion in the second half of 2023. The report also indicates that sector sales are projected to increase by 95% by 2025. Globally, the Global Payments Report, released by Worldpay from FIS, forecasts a 55.3% growth in the segment over the next three years.
Mateus Toledo, CEO of MT Soluções, a company that provides e-commerce solutions, believes that the growing adoption of online shopping by Brazilians will boost business in the sector. In this regard, according to Toledo, an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) is one of the elements that can assist in e-commerce practices.
“A good ERP can assist in the overall management of a business, organizing information and data that are essential within a manager’s daily routine,” says Toledo. “The ERP helps with inventory control, financial control, issuing invoices and bills, managing customer and product registrations, among others,” he adds.
Tools and evolving ERP strategies
According to the CEO of MT Soluções, ERP tools and strategies have evolved in recent years, aiming to include all company control within a single integrated management system. “Among the next steps for enhancement, ERP platforms have sought to improve their technologies and listen to ‘those who truly matter,’ which are the retailers,” says Toledo.
“Proof of this is that organizations brought their product teams to the three largest e-commerce events that took place in Brazil this year. There is a noticeable openness and respect for Brazilian entrepreneurs so that, in a short time, innovations and improvements appear on these platforms,” concludes the specialist.
