The new service starts in response to the growing online retail landscape and consumer demand. eBay and Woolworths have developed a service that will provide the most convenient delivery network for online shopping in Australia, giving consumers the chance to choose a collection point that suits their needs.
The partnership is a significant opportunity for retailers, with a surge in purchase frequency predicted for over two million Australian eBay users. The service is also expected to offer entrepreneurs, and small to large businesses, the chance to boost their reach and introduce an additional revenue stream.
Hamish Moline, eBay merchant development director said, “The online retail industry is growing faster than ever. The new service creates a brand new avenue for our sellers, driving traffic and encouraging a rise in sales that could change the face of businesses all over the country.”
Emily Amos, general manager at Woolworths marketplace said, “Woolworths is Australia’s largest domestic retailer and we know our customers are busier than ever and are looking for greater convenience and ease in everything they do. This new service will help them make best use of their time by removing the need to wait at home for a parcel to arrive.” (GK)
