You build your brand.
We handle the complexity of trading, operations and fulfilment, so you can focus on what you do best.
Amazon • eBay • Mirakl marketplaces • TikTok Shop
You've built a great FMCG brand.
But scaling across Amazon, eBay, TikTok Shop and 130+ European marketplaces, while managing compliance, fulfilment, advertising and customer service, is a full-time operation in itself.
That's exactly what we do for you.
Marketplace expansion shouldn't require an army
Cash Flow Drain
Inventory capital tied up for months waiting for marketplace payment cycles. Your working capital frozen whilst products sit in marketplace fulfilment centres.
Operational Complexity
Managing listings, advertising, compliance, customer service and returns across multiple platforms demands real expertise. Add GSPR obligations and EU VAT requirements, and most brand teams simply can't keep up. The result: talented people buried in platform admin instead of building the brand.
Channel Expertise
Each marketplace has unique requirements, algorithms and best practices. Excelling across multiple platforms, including the growing number of retailer-owned Mirakl marketplaces, is nearly impossible without deep specialisation.
"Every month without a professional marketplace operation is market share ceded to competitors who have one."
