Through exclusive seller acquisition, comprehensive operational efforts and active engagement with sellers to build healthy and long-lasting relationships, the ZALORA Marketplace works via a highly collaborative model to provide a fun, transparent and fuss-free platform for both customers and sellers.
In order to encourage continued engagement and communication with sellers, the ZALORA Marketplace employs the use of the Seller Center platform which serves as a one-stop center for sellers to manage their stores. The platform allows sellers to create their own storefront in the ZALORA Marketplace, upload new images and content, manage prices and stock levels, process orders and invoicing as well as to obtain sales data & a financial overview on how their business is doing.
