Adoption of e-commerce by organisations in Botswana

Abstract

This research is an investigation of the adoption of e-commerce by organisations in Botswana. E-commerce has the potential to uplift organisations in developing countries in terms of higher profits, increased productivity and efficiency in the way business is done . Organisations can also reach out to more customers and suppliers thereby increasing their geographical market without any physical expansion of their operations or increasing their workforces. Challenges abound in trying to adopt e-commerce applications and technologies by organisations in Botswana as the study will reveal.
