The revenue made by European e-commerce platforms in the Netherlands was estimated to be around 776 million euros in the fourth quarter of 2020. The source specifically states that all numbers provided are provisional and had a margin of error of around five percent, as research was still ongoing. The Netherlands has a strong domestic e-commerce market with players such as online marketplace Bol.com or electronics retailer Coolblue, with revenues reaching respectively 1.22 billion euros and 844 million euros in 2017. Compared to other European countries, Dutch consumers seemed less inclined to shop across their own borders. It should also be noted that Amazon is not active as such in the Netherlands. Instead, the e-commerce company uses a partially translated version of their German website to appeal to the Dutch audience. In 2017, Amazon's revenue in the Netherlands was 230 million euros.
