An e-commerce as enacted is an online information system that works on a b2b concept for business transaction and sales of products. E-commerce is a commonly associated with e-business that describes business activities such as buying and selling of goods and services using technology. But e-commerce is more than just conducting online transactions, it’s also involves a wide range of associated activities, including logistics and after-sales support (Hardcastle, 2008, pp. 21)
The e-commerce this research hopes to purport is an online retail store which the authors of this research has been projected to do for an e-commerce store for the display of products which are available in the retail store over the internet.
E – Commerce is primarily concerned with speed, connectivity, exchange of goods and services as well as the sharing of information. (Javalgi and Ramsey, 2001).
The research, that will be conducted goes to discuss about how the project team is going to conduct and carry out the implementation of an online retail store which will able to allow customers to query the database and view current stocks that are available for products held by the retail store. By the implementation of this system the daily business transaction of the E-commerce store will be done over an internet protocol. This will enable the business owner to be able to handle the day to day business transaction that will be gained by its retail store and process them accordingly all for the purpose of earning more profit and maximizing customer satisfaction.
