Finding great vendors is hard enough. Onboarding them is even harder.
Expanding retail assortment efficiently is a mammoth challenge. After all, deciding to expand is one thing, creating and executing a strategy fast enough to hit your numbers and catch the latest big trend is another.
The last thing you want is to invest thousands (or millions) into acquiring a pile of vendor data only to miss the wave and come out with a loss.
To find the best vendors for your retail business, you need a one-stop shop with a massive selection.
