“The Marketplacer SFCC Cartridge is a welcome addition to AppExchange, as they power digital transformation for customers by offering retailers and other businesses an easy path launching their own curated marketplaces”
The Marketplacer SFCC Cartridge helps businesses implement a curated marketplace or range extension model that supports flexible business options for third-party selling and complements existing commerce strategies. Curated marketplaces are forecasted to become a major driver of retail sales as retailers and businesses look to grow revenue without taking on traditional risk. Edge by Ascential’s recent Future of Marketplaces Report cited third-party marketplaces as accounting for 60% of ecommerce globally by 2027.
