Launch Your Own Multi-Vendor Grocery Marketplace

Going to the supermarket every week to buy groceries may take a long time as you have to wait in long lines and look for the groceries that you need. With the emergence of technology at the forefront, online grocery platforms have resolved the shopping challenges by providing access to quality products without wasting time and energy.

Though the grocery buying behavior of consumers has been changing behind the scene, the Covid-19 pandemic made it mandatory. And the demand for online grocery shops is now increasing rapidly.

According to Orian Research, the global online grocery market would grow at a CAGR of 23.7 % in the period of 2020- 2025. Another research suggests that the grocery e-commerce business is expected to reach $250 Billion in the next five years.

Keeping that market growth and demand in mind, grocery shops have to go online, and our technology solution Do Grocer is solving the problem at the forefront.  

What Is the Multi-Vendor Grocery Marketplace?

Multivendor Marketplace is a platform that connects different vendors and buyers. The platform includes several vendors and allows them to list their products. With the help of it, they can also build an online catalog of products where customers can select the products they want to purchase.

Sellers mainly aim to provide a variety of products to build trust among the customers and create a brand value for which the consumers choose to shop in these markets. Moreover, marketplace owners are responsible for obtaining clients, storing items, logistics, or facilitating payments. On the other hand, marketplace administrators have no inventory types, but help buyers and sellers to encourage transactions.
