Episode Details

Levi's is quietly outperforming digital-native brands with 10% ecommerce growth — and the EU's new parcel surveillance fee could reshape the cost model for every brand shipping into Europe.

In this episode:

• Captify data shows UK social commerce search intent surged 457% during the Christmas shopping period, while AI-powered fashion searches rose 44% over the same window.
• Levi Strauss & Co. reported 10% ecommerce revenue growth in fiscal Q3 2026, outpacing its broader direct-to-consumer channel as the brand signals confidence in holiday sales.
• The European Commission is drafting a bloc-wide 'surveillance fee' on packages arriving from outside the EU — a separate measure from Austria's national parcel levy — aimed at funding product safety inspections on high-volume shipments from platforms like Shein and Temu.
