BEVH

The German E-Commerce and Distance Selling Trade Association (bevh) was established in 1947 with the aim of a) representing the interests of its members with regard to legal legislation and institutional bodies and of b) providing information and counselling and creating the structures necessary for a dialogue amongst its members.
Currently it has a dynamically growing membership of large and small distance selling companies using the sales channels internet, catalogue, direct sales and TV. They include both firms with a very narrow product range and others with 100,000 articles and more in their inventory. Statistically there are more specialists than general retailers. German distance selling (goods) aggregate turnover is 65,1 billion EUR in 2018.
