To illustrate Amazon's belief in the future of e-retailing in Central Europe it has nearly completed the building of 2 massive warehouses, logistic hubs in Poland which are being built in Wroclaw and Poznan, which will service the Polish market as well as its CE neighbors such as Germany, Czech etc.In Poland the dawn of widespread Internet access is furthering the reach of online shopping beyond the traditional 25-35-year age group, into the over 45s and seniors. The development of new electronic payment techniques, including strong growth in the CB (Carte Bleu ) Visa card brand from France, is contributing to the surge in e-retailing.
