Here’s an overview of the Webinar.

Online retailers today are seeing record growth in online sales driven by Covid-19. There is an increasing appetite for online ordering from customers who are under lockdowns, working from home or who simply enjoy the convenience of buying online. However, for an online retailer, the sales growth leads to increasing costs being incurred in inventory holding costs, sourcing increased inventory, stock delivery and fulfilment.

The multi-vendor model enables online retailers to extensively expand their product offering and range by allowing third-party sellers to sell alongside them on a multi-vendor marketplace.

In this webinar, we looked at how online retailers can transform an existing single-vendor online store into a full-fledged multi-vendor marketplace. Hear from customers’ case studies and learn from marketplace experts as we provide you with a playbook to build and scale your own online marketplace.
