According to an analysis by the Brazilian Association of Electronic Commerce (ABComm), Brazilian e-commerce is expected to reach a revenue of R$ 91.5 billion in the second half of 2023. The balance sheet 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 55.3% growth 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 boost the sector's businesses. 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 assist in the entire management of a business, organizing information and data that are essential within a manager's daily routine," says Toledo. "The ERP assists in store inventory control, financial management, issuance of invoices and bills, customer and product registration, among others," he/she/they adds.
Evolving ERP tools and strategies
According to the CEO of MT Solutions, 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 seeking to enhance their technologies and listen to 'those who really matter,' which are the retailers," says Toledo.
“Proof of this is that organizations brought their companies’ product teams to the three largest e-commerce events that took place in Brazil this year. We can see the openness and respect shown to Brazilian entrepreneurs so that, in a short period of time, new developments and improvements can appear on these platforms,” concludes the expert.
