- Can we have single point of truth if the products are coming, and the revenue is being generating from same place?
- Do we have different product types, and is it possible to show only the relevant products to customers based on their area of interest?
- Do we have multiple potential customers and audiences globally? If yes, can each customer be targeted separately?
- Does my current website cater to all regions in world?
- Can we get a currency and language specific website to help increase leads and ultimately increase the sales and ROI?
The answer and solution to all the above questions is adopting eCommerce multi store platform.
What is a Multi-Storefront?
Multi-storefront is having one single admin platform that allows merchants to run and manage multiple brands within the same ownership and platform. It allows one to manage all business models such as B2C, B2B, B2B2C etc. all from a single eCommerce platform. It provides leverage to expand business to multiple locations by allowing to display location specific products, currency, language, pricing and much more. Multi-storefront marks a major milestone for most complex use cases, product enrichments and helps merchants to grow their brand, business, and geographical reach.
