Online service delivery: E-commerce in the mid-market

E-commerce in the mid-market is rapidly reshaping how B2B organisations operate and compete. We’ve seen a significant increase in Freeman Clarke clients moving into the ecommerce space.

While some mid-market businesses initially resisted the shift, those that embraced it are now seeing clear commercial benefits. In this discussion, our experts explore how E-commerce is evolving and what it takes to succeed.

In this video, Graeme Freeman (Co-Founder and Director) moderates a discussion alongside Christine Parker Stubbs, Mike Sturrock, and other expert consultants. The central theme is the evolution of e-commerce in the mid-market, analysing how the pandemic accelerated the digitisation of B2B companies and the current challenges they face to compete in this new environment.

The rise of E-commerce in the mid-market has been driven by changing customer expectations, increased competition and the need for more scalable and efficient business models.
