Sell on Zalando
Do you sell lifestyle or fashion items such as clothing, shoes, beauty products, sunglasses and other accessories? Then you can sell your products via Zalando: the European market leader within the fashion marketplaces.
The beginning of Zalando
Zalando is inspired by the American Zappos and was founded in Germany. It all started in 2008 when David Schneider and Robert Gentz founded Zalando for the online sale of shoes. In the Netherlands we have known Zalando since 2010: the year in which this fashion giant became the online market leader in the sale of shoes.
This site has now grown into a gigantic, international marketplace with an annual profit of hundreds of millions of euros! Not only with shoes, by the way, but also with all kinds of other fashion items. And yes: you can also benefit from that.
