Ecommerce Marketplace Development – If I ask a question ” what are the biggest and popular e-commerce websites?” Answer

and many others. If you will realize what is common in all those websites?
“They are all Multi-Vendor Marketplace”

What is a Multi Vendor Marketplace?

A platform which connects buyer and sellers/vendors at one place is called a marketplace. Traditional e-commerce stores have only Shop Owner and Customers.

But in an Online Marketplace, there are a couple of other entities –

Marketplace Owner
Vendors/Suppliers ( in case of B2B )
Customers
Logistics and Warehouse manager ( In case of Big marketplaces )
Shipping Provider

There are others as well, like Dispute Manager ( in case of refund and returns ).

How to create an online marketplace?
