Always meet consumer demand
Extend and adapt your online assortment by launching your own online marketplace and drop ship platform.
Let's talkTake control of the eCommerce opportunity
The surge in eCommerce has created fierce competition among retailers to win demanding online consumers, while faced with rising costs and operational constraints.
- Rising consumer expectations
There is a need for speed to meet consumer demands for more choice, sustainable and local options, better prices, and more convenience, without resorting to cost-cutting tactics.
- Supply chain and margin squeezes
The more shoppers move online, the more traditional retail supply chains are stressed, resulting in excess inventory, stock-outs, and a negative impact on customer experience and retail profit margins.
- Competitors are big and move fast
Platform giants have set a high bar and are capturing more customers by offering greater assortment, faster through third-party sellers—a capability many incumbent retailers lack.
