If you are buying stuff on the Internet, there’s a significant chance that you bought something from AliExpress or Alibaba. This Chinese mega company comes third on the list of the largest eCommerce companies in the world!

4. eBay Inc. – The eCommerce Company That Once Sold a Whole Town
The eBay’s beloved red-blue-green-yellow logo is for many a symbol of the 1990s and for a good reason. It was one of the first successful dot-com bubble companies that epitomized online shopping. The company was founded in San Hose, California in 1995 and its most distinctive feature is the online auction feature, alongside a conventional buy-it-now shopping option.

With the revenue of almost $11B in 2018, eBay comes fourth on the list of the largest eCommerce companies in the world.

In all, Rakuten Group runs some 70 businesses, ranging from widely used instant messaging app Viber (as 2017 officially known as Rakuten Viber) to having their logo on FC Barcelona’s jerseys.
