Shopiz.ch, Swiss Marketplace
PRESENTATION OF SHOPIZ.CH
Consumption habits are changing, the giants of the internet are shaking up the rules of trade, and the Swiss retail sector is suffering.
This trend is accentuated with the rise of e-commerce, the shift of sales to an online distribution channel and foreign sales platforms.
We no longer sell in the same way, we do not prospect in the same way and we do not buy anymore like 10 years ago, the rules of the trade have changed and the trade must adapt to the new expectations of the consumers.
In 2017, on the strength of this observation and assuming that we should unite and support this economic fabric in this evolution, we have developed an online sales platform for Swiss merchants, producers, creators and manufacturers.
The concept of this platform is defined by the direct linking of buyers and traders on a common e-commerce platform increasing the sales force. Shopiz.ch is more than an online sales platform, Shopiz.ch is a commercial tool for Swiss merchants.
The platform currently has 10 main themes broken down by product families, and all merchants can easily insert their products for sale.
The strong point of the platform is the free to open a basic account and the opportunities we offer merchants to support them in marketing, and advertising their products online.
To date, more than 4,500 products have already been registered through 25 stores that have understood the challenge of this distribution channel.
The Shopiz.ch project also includes a support site for merchants that allows them to open an account or find online help under www.pro.shopiz.ch.
ABOUT US
David Valette: For more than 20 years, e-commerce has been part of my job. Since 2015, I have observed the phenomenal growth of e-commerce, which continues to grow, and the need for merchants to optimize their distribution channels.
Guillaume Chalvin is a contact person, a man who knows how to gather and who knows how to federate. From this meeting, the idea of Shopiz.ch had sprouted. It was necessary to federate the Swiss trade, to valorize it on a platform of sale by mastering all the rules and subtleties of the e-commerce.
We wanted more than a platform for traders. We wanted our e-commerce expertise and experience to enable the trader to sell his products, enhance his value, and optimize his online marketing and advertising presence.
