The home goods market is booming on e-commerce platforms, with Amazon seeing 35% of its sales from home-related items. Similarly, Temu's home goods also make up around 35% of platform's total sales, while eBay's home and garden category contributes to 12% of its sales. Given the volume of sales in the home goods sector across these platforms, it's crucial for brands to actively monitor these spaces to safeguard against infringements and maintain their authenticity in a crowded marketplace.
On social media, 23% of home products are purchased through platforms like Instagram and TikTok, as per Mastercard research. This growth underscores the need to protect brands from counterfeits, fake store pages, and brand impersonation across these platforms. This presents an additional layer of risk for brands, as fake social media accounts can easily impersonate legitimate businesses, mislead consumers, and undermine trust.
