Plus DoorDash bets on AI-driven B2B ordering and Søstrene Grene proves physical retail still scales.

DoorDash announced agentic ordering for corporate and office customers at its Dash Forward event, enabling AI agents to place recurring orders automatically without human input. Danish home goods retailer Søstrene Grene grew revenue more than 16% in its latest fiscal year and opened 72 new stores, outperforming peers despite weak consumer spending across Europe.

  TikTok & Amazon Challenge Ad Measurement, Healf Tops Europe

  Oct 3, 20267 min

  TikTok and Amazon are both rewriting how they count ad results — and brands are caught in the middle. Plus, a UK wellness marketplace just outgrew every AI and fintech startup in Europe. In this episode: TikTok is rolling out its own attribution framework to challenge last-click measurement, entering a space already destabilised by Apple's iOS privacy changes and competing platform-reported numbers from Meta and Google. Amazon is claiming its ads generate sales beyond standard attribution windows, but agencies are demanding independent proof, arguing the company has an obvious financial interest in inflating its own ROAS figures. Healf, a curated UK health and wellness marketplace, ranked number one out of 250 of Europe's fastest-growing startups in the 2026 Sifted ranking, beating AI and fintech companies across the continent.

  Temu & Shein Own 90% of EU Cross-Border Spend, ChatGPT Enters Shopping

  Oct 2, 20267 min

  Temu, Shein and AliExpress now control nine in every ten euros Europeans spend abroad online — and ChatGPT just launched virtual try-on and wishlists, making it a direct rival to Google Shopping and Zalando. In this episode: New data shows European consumers sent nearly €49.7 billion outside the EU via cross-border ecommerce in 2025, with over 90% of that spend captured by just three Chinese platforms: Temu, Shein, and AliExpress. Austria introduced a €2-per-parcel national levy on large online sellers and marketplaces effective 1 October 2026, drawing immediate criticism from industry bodies who warn it raises consumer costs and disadvantages compliant domestic retailers over non-compliant foreign sellers. ChatGPT rolled out a virtual clothing try-on feature and a favourites wishlist function, positioning OpenAI as a direct competitor to Google Shopping, Pinterest and retailer apps at the product discovery stage of the purchase journey.

  Apple Blocks The Trade Desk, Whoop's 300K Unit Surprise

  Oct 1, 20267 min

  Apple just blocked The Trade Desk from serving ads on Safari — and peak season is weeks away. Plus, Whoop nearly broke its supply chain by growing too fast. In this episode: Apple's latest iOS update is actively blocking The Trade Desk from serving programmatic ads on Safari, cutting off a significant slice of open-web ad inventory for performance marketers heading into peak season. Whoop's pivot from elite athletes to everyday consumers drove 85% membership growth in a single year, but a surprise 300,000-unit holiday order exposed serious demand planning vulnerabilities in its DTC supply chain. A new study finds 59% of German cross-border sellers say international trade is getting more expensive each year, with marketplace fees, logistics complexity, and compliance costs identified as the primary drags on profitability.

  DoorDash Enters Returns, Kroger Scores Ad Creative with AI

  Sep 30, 20267 min

  DoorDash is coming for UPS and FedEx's returns business. Kroger is predicting which ads will sell before they go live. And Europe's 5% ecommerce growth figure is hiding a much bigger story underneath. In this episode: DoorDash announced a nationwide returns service at its Dash Forward event on September 29, putting it in direct competition with UPS, FedEx, and Amazon's return infrastructure while simultaneously adding new retail partners to its marketplace.

Ecommerce Europe and EuroCommerce forecast 5% growth in European online consumer spending for 2026, a figure that masks near-flat growth in mature Western markets like Germany and France versus significantly faster expansion across Southern and Eastern Europe.
