The global ecommerce sector is dominated by big names such as Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN), Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA), and PayPal Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:PYPL). Despite these brands dominating the space, there are several lesser known companies in the industry that offer the same bang for the buck. As global ecommerce sales remain on track to reach 27% of retail sales by 2026, despite macro headwinds and recession fears, investors should take notice of these small cap growth stocks. 

A recent report by investment bank Morgan Stanley reveals that even in countries where online shopping is already popular, ecommerce will continue to gain further market share. For example, in parts of Southeast Asia and Latin America, ecommerce could grow 17% and 20%, respectively, over the next five years and compound annually. In South Korea, the sector could grow an astonishing 45% in the next five years, driven by food delivery and same-day options, as well as other innovations. 

Even in the United States, ecommerce could reach 31% of sales by 2026, up from 23% now, as brick-and-mortar stores close and consumers prioritize convenience. Andrew Ruben, an analyst covering retail and ecommerce in Latin America, believes that digital sales are growing across new verticals such as beauty, apparel, and grocery. He has said that even though there are headwinds in certain countries and verticals, there was a strong belief in the industry that these barriers will continue to come down.
