Fashion and accessories are becoming increasingly popular in the field of online shopping. The emergence of new marketplaces in the fashion industry provides online retailers with many new opportunities to expand their businesses, like being able to offer their products internationally. Having already looked at La Redoute, Menlook, and Brand Alley in part 1, we now have 3 more marketplaces to share with you…
Kamal Chhetri, Senior Ecommerce Business Developer for the UK, on marketplaces and their potential:
“For many of our clients, marketplaces represent 40% of their turnover. They’re the safest start when you enter a new online market. They can help with cross-border challenges like difference in languages, currency conversions, payment options, shipping, customs, tax and legislations. Beyond this, marketplaces can also help retailers in testing local demands for your products. The UK is the 2nd most desirable online destination and there is a huge demand for British products in international markets.”
Galeries Lafayette has been active online since 2013, and sells a multitude of products, including fashion, accessories, bed linen, table decorations, and kitchen products. The marketplace today has 80 active sellers, and stocks products from more than 1,300 brands on its online store. 67% of their customers are women and 33% men.
One of the biggest benefits of selling with Galeries Lafayette is their high visibility – ranging from social media campaigns to email alerts to banners and push messages. From 49 euros per month, retailers can sell their goods on the marketplace, but each contract is negotiated individually (based on an in-store contract). Currently, the website only stocks brands that are available in their physical store.
