what products do not go well with e-commerce?
Ecommerce has made peoples life so easy that in one click they can buy any product or services to house. It shows verities of product and less costly compared to the physical stores. Different country has different rules therefore selling of few products can be a restriction. Let’s see few examples which do not go well with e-commers.
1) Alcohol – in many places buying alcohol through online is legal but with lot of formalities and restrictions and few states its strictly prohibited. And to work with these laws, distributors trying to make partners with the physical stores.
2) Tobacco – people who love tobacco can get them from online, but cigarettes are exceptional. Tobacco products like cigar are given permission but again differing to state law.
3) Fresh vegetables and fruits – again some countries don’t allow purchase of vegetables and fruits. If we take an example California doesn’t allow online purchase because they fear pest infiltration.
4) Animals – purchasing of pets from online site and getting them home are legal practice is few states but then animal right association is always worried about it. As each state have different regulation for transporting animals.
