Newegg Establishes Canada Global Seller Program

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Newegg, the top tech-focused e-retailer in North America, today announced establishment of its Canada Global Seller Program. The new program gives sellers across the globe an easy point of entry to reach millions of Canadian customers.

“Newegg’s Canadian infrastructure provides access to a very affluent customer base,” said Sophia Tsao, Head of Newegg Marketplace. “Our global strategy is to help connect savvy sellers with eager consumers, and that’s precisely what we’ve done with our new Canada Global Seller Program.”

The Canadian e-commerce market is growing rapidly, with online sales projected to reach $44B by 2018. An estimated 2.2M Canadian customers shop online regularly, with 42% of those seeking out international sellers offering more aggressive pricing than domestic sellers. This highlights the ripe opportunity for sellers located outside Canada to use Newegg’s Canadian infrastructure to reach this important customer base.

Newegg’s Canadian Marketplace is showing strong growth, far exceeding the growth demonstrated by the Canadian e-commerce market as a whole. For example, first-half growth for Newegg Canada in CY 2015 is up 1,100% versus the same period last year. The looming infusion of new sellers in the Canadian Marketplace is expected to drive further growth in the months ahead.

Canada Global Seller Program participants benefit from immediate access to Newegg Canada’s 20M+ annual unique visitors – a highly loyal and tech-savvy customer base. Newegg’s team of dedicated category managers oversees sellers’ businesses, offering powerful merchandizing and marketing tools to boost visibility and increase sales. Newegg sellers bypass credit card transaction fees, monthly dues and listing fees, while benefiting from Newegg’s world-class customer service and prompt delivery of sales proceeds and commissions.
