Winning in 2021 with Marketplaces - eCommerce is so 2020

March 29, 2021  |  3:30 PM – 4:30 PM EST

Summary

The marketplace model is behind the exponential growth of some of the world’s largest and most successful eCommerce giants; driven by consumers seeking greater selection, convenience, and competitive pricing. In this new era of eCommerce, leading retailers and brands are rising to the challenge and launching enterprise marketplaces of their own to deliver on customers’ rising expectations while driving growth for their business.

Join industry experts from Deloitte Digital and Mirakl to discuss the rise of enterprise marketplaces, how they measured up against first-party eCommerce in 2020, and what the implications are for your business.

Discussion Around Key Findings

Mirakl released a report on March 3rd titled the Enterprise Marketplace Index, featuring comprehensive analysis of third-party marketplace data. This report will be available for all attendees.

  • Amidst an unprecedented acceleration of digital transformation, marketplace growth far outpaced even the outsized growth rate of eCommerce. The 81% growth in marketplace GMV was carried by a spike in marketplace purchases of 106%. This order surge is a strong indication that these retailers are cementing their reputations as true shopping destinations.
  • Marketplaces generated 34% more traffic for retailers.
  • To meet shopper needs, marketplace product assortment grew by 32%, giving rise to an even larger gain in overall GMV of 81%.
