Today we sit down with Kevin Steward, Country Head UK for Baselinker, to talk marketplaces. From the long established eBay and Amazon, to the very newest to launch in the UK – Tesco, plus Temu, OnBuy, Debenhams and B&Q, what we want to know is which we should be selling on today!
Kevin takes a practical view, based on discussions with retailers and brands who already use Baselinker. Whenever a new marketplace opens up, retailers want to know if they should embrace the platform, but it comes down to your stock profile and if you have the back end operations in place to support the new channel.
