Alibaba.com and Bigcommerce streamline sourcing to selling


Bigcommerce, an ecommerce platform for fast-growing brands,
has announced a new partnership with Alibaba.com to provide merchants with
greater global access to products and services. As part of the partnership,
Alibaba.com, the leading platform for wholesale trade, will integrate its buyer
and supplier network with the Bigcommerce ecommerce platform.

According to industry research 84 per cent of online
sellers find that establishing a drop ship supplier or wholesaler relationship
is the primary roadblock to starting an online business. The new
Bigcommerce-Alibaba.com partnership brings together online businesses with
trusted suppliers to make it easier to find, purchase and stock products from
all over the world.

The solution offersbuyers a simplified buying process and streamlined checkout with
single-click access from the Bigcommerce platform to Alibaba.com where they can
easily find products, register and complete purchases. This includes Alibaba
services such as Escrow, a payment protection programme, and third-party
inspectors for quality control.

“We are partnering with Bigcommerce to make it easy
for our customers to do business anywhere in the world,” said Michael Lee,
director of Global Marketing and Business Development at Alibaba.com.
“Alibaba.com and Bigcommerce together are building an integrated ecommerce
ecosystem and helping to introduce more small and medium-sized merchants and
online stores to the global market.”

“With this Alibaba.com partnership, we are helping
our merchants grow their online businesses every step of the way, rom sourcing
to selling,”
