Route design for retail, online platforms, local sellers and category operators.

Retail Chains & Marketplaces

Relevant buyer groups

  • Retail buyers
  • Marketplace operators
  • Local sellers
  • Fulfilment partners

Typical entry questions

  • Which buyer category is realistic for the first stage?
  • Does the product require certification, registration or special documentation?
  • Is the product better suited for an importer, distributor, direct buyer, marketplace or local warehouse model?
  • What commercial materials must be localized before outreach?
  • How should the first pilot order or sample process be structured?

Recommended starting point

For this category, we usually begin with market intelligence, channel mapping and partner screening. Once the route is clear, we move into buyer outreach, meetings, due diligence and first-shipment planning.
