What is E-Commerce?

E-commerce (electronic commerce) is the buying and selling of products and services over the internet. It removes the geographic and time constraints of physical retail, allowing businesses to sell 24/7 to customers anywhere in Turkey and around the world. From small artisan producers to large retail chains, e-commerce is accessible and valuable at every business scale.

E-Commerce Business Models

• B2C (Business to Consumer): The most common model — businesses selling directly to individual consumers. Retail clothing, electronics, and food delivery are typical examples.
• B2B (Business to Business): Transactions between businesses, such as wholesale suppliers, raw materials, and professional services.
• D2C (Direct to Consumer): Manufacturers bypassing middlemen to sell directly to end customers, retaining full control over the brand experience and margins.
• Marketplace: Multi-vendor platforms like Trendyol, Hepsiburada, and Amazon where multiple sellers list products.
