Abstract :This study aims to explore the factors affecting the competitiveness of ecommerce companies.

A study composed of two consecutive phases was conducted. First, a quantitative survey among the members of the Turkish Association of Ecommerce Companies, was conducted. A case of Turkish e-commerce companies is selected because the Turkish e-commerce market is rapidly developing and providing a fruitful environment to conduct a valuable research. Furthermore, quantitative findings are supported with in-depth analysis of qualitative data collected by semi-structured interviews with the senior managers of the leading ecommerce companies in Turkey.
