A Complete List of Global E-commerce Marketplaces By Regions Across The World

So recently we had a free interactive Q&A session on E-commerce Business In Nigeria and I promised to share a Complete List of Global E-commerce Marketplaces By Regions Across The World to the participants but then again it occurred to me that instead of sharing a .pdf file to everyone, why not write it as an article and share with as many people as possible that might find this same information valuable.

So in this article, I have broken down and compiled a complete list of Global E-commerce Marketplaces Across The World for anyone that might need such information.

Recently, I wrote an article on what people are buying online the most in 2020 so far so you might want to check that out and if you are also considering an e-commerce business in Nigeria, you should also see this article here that talks about my journey so far in the industry, the impact of covid-19 and much more.

Now let’s get started with the list of global e-commerce marketplaces across the world. Please take note these e-commerce marketplaces are online sites where there are many sellers & buyers trading through the same website. Buyers are able to purchase products without leaving the site (or app).

International expansion is no doubt one of the most powerful ways to increase sales nonetheless business owners and investors are advised to consider the possible challenges that might come with such growth.

So far there are a few changes you should be informed about

  • Amazon acquired Souq.com, and rebranded the Souq UAE site to Amazon.ae. Souq’s Egyptian and Saudi Arabian sites continue to run under the Souq brand.
  • Rakuten Brazil has rebranded as GenMarket.
  • PayPay Mall was launched in October 2019 and has replaced Yahoo.co.jp.
  • Pricefalls was acquired by Canada’s largest retailer, Loblaw, for their technology but not the marketplace itself.
  • U.K. marketplace Flubit was acquired by cryptocurrency site MonetaryUnit and does not appear to be trading again.
  • iOffer closed down amid speculation around counterfeit goods being sold.

With several years in the Nigerian e-commerce industry being a part of its evolution and growth, it is important to note that the African market especially the Nigerian market will not stop growing and getting better in-fact besides the Fin-tech industry and other tech innovations, the e-commerce industry has currently being ranked as one of the major global emerging markets to look out by 2021.
