The paper is designed as a survey, after taking inspiration from different studies already conducted.

The report focuses on how different e-commerce consumers behave and understanding the Pakistan’s ecommerce domain. To understand the likes and dislikes in the market and also understand the consumers pain points and unexplored opportunities that might be there like cross border ecommerce.

This survey specifically targets the audience in Pakistan and to ensure that we have collected responses from people who use ecommerce in different cities in Pakistan. The survey was posted on social media groups for responses.
