E-MARKET
Electronic markets are markets connected through modern communications networks and
powered by high-speed computers. In an electronic marketplace, buyers and sellers do not
have to be in the same physical location in order to interact. It is a web-based information
system which provides opportunities for both suppliers and buyers.
