The global pandemic has shifted the mindset of retailers over the past five months with a greater focus on their digital offerings than ever before. That’s why it’s perhaps the perfect time for Pentagon to launch their new Storesome marketplace solution enabling retailers and brands to expand their product selection, add inventory without taking risk, and boost sales by welcoming third party sellers to their platforms.
“Brands have a real opportunity to sell more efficiently and to more people via marketplaces, and our technological solution, along with our supplier and partner network, provides the speed and scale they need to become successful.”
– Graham Broughton, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Storesome
Storesome is built by Pentagon, who have an amazing knowledge of how marketplace work through their work assisting brands and retailers expand overseas. (Pentagon run the Retail Without Borders conference where dozens of marketplaces from around the world have been introduced to thousands of retailer and brands.) Having built their first marketplace project with the UK’s fastest growing mobile network, they quickly realised that the sophistication of the technology that they had developed, was a proposition robust and compelling enough to warrant a standalone company. Now, they can combine their Storesome marketplace solution along with Pentagon’s unique relationships with many of the world’s top brands – a ready pool of top labels eager to sell on your new marketplace.
“With the wealth of marketplace experience in our group, it was the logical next step to help companies build their own marketplace. There is a great product, team and initial customer base behind Storesome.”
– Laurence Guy, Founder and Group CEO, We Are Pentagon
