What are the key forces behind the online grocery market’s growth in recent years?

A shifting preference towards digital shopping for convenience and safety is expected to propel the growth of the online grocery market in the coming years. Digital shopping, often known as shopping online or e-commerce, is the process of buying products or services via an internet connection using a mobile app or a website. Digital shopping in grocery stores is convenient and time-saving, allowing customers to browse, choose, and purchase goods from the convenience of their own homes, with the bonus of doorstep delivery.
