This meant a strict change in the modality in which consumers acquired products or services. Lima millennials represent 32.1% of the population. They had to adapt their consumption habits to the novelties imposed by electronic commerce. This is how, as of 2021, electronic commerce became relevant in face of restrictions on the movement of people. Therefore, from the point of view of this study, the objective of the investigation considers “determining if consumption habits are related to electronic commerce in Lima millennials - Covid-19/2021 pandemic”. Regarding the methodology, the non-experimental design was implemented, a cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, and correlational descriptive scope.
