Where can I find stats about online purchase trends in GCC? Can anyone provide any insight please.

I am trying to compile some stats about concept of online purchase in GCC, do people prefer to purchase online? From foreign countries or local suppliers? Which items are mostly purchased i.e. Apparel & Fashion, Electronics etc. If anyone can point me where I can get all these info that will be great help. Thanks!

Hi Aziz, I remember this being covered on one of Bayt.com's research Internet Usage in the Middle East Survey- September 2011.
Here is the link to it : http://www.bayt.com/en/research-report-11262/ Slide 23 would be particularly insightful to you.
Hope this helps

Thanks Apeksha, this document is really helpful indeed.
I think stats must be a little different for the year 2012 however this is still something I can start with.
Thanks a million!
