According to an analysis by the Brazilian Association of E-Commerce (ABComm), Brazilian e-commerce is expected to reach revenue of R$ 91.5 billion in the second half of 2023. The report also indicates that sales in the sector are expected to increase by 95% by 2025. Globally, the Global Payments Report released by Worldpay from FIS projects a growth of 55.3% in the next three years for the segment.
Mateus Toledo, CEO of MT Soluções, a company that offers solutions for e-commerce, believes that the increasing adoption of online shopping by Brazilians will drive business in the sector. In this sense, according to Toledo, an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) is one of the elements that can assist in e-commerce practices.
“A good ERP can aid in the entire management of a business, organizing information and data that are essential within the work routine of a manager,” says Toledo. “The ERP assists in inventory control of the store, financial management, issuing invoices and slips, registering customers and products, among others,” he adds.
Tools and ERP strategies in constant evolution
According to the CEO of MT Soluções, ERP tools and strategies have evolved in recent years, aiming to include all company control in a single integrated management system. “Among the next steps for improvement, ERP platforms have been looking to enhance their technologies and listen to ‘those who really matter’, which are the retailers,” says Toledo.
“The proof of this is that organizations brought their product teams to the three largest e-commerce events that occurred in Brazil this year. There is a noticeable openness and respect towards Brazilian entrepreneurs so that, in a short period, new features and improvements will appear on these platforms,” concludes the specialist.
