How is Spartoo different from other marketplaces?

Established in 2006, Spartoo has invested heavily in their marketing through the years, and consequently has huge brand awareness across Europe, including France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK. More than 10 million unique visitors head to the Spartoo marketplace every single month – and considering the marketplace is a specialist one, rather than a general store, customers are often ready to buy when they head to Spartoo.

The Spartoo marketplace is well known for their extensive selection of well-known, mid-range and luxury brand fashion items. The core demographic for Spartoo customers is professional women aged between 30-45, which means with the right selection of products, the Spartoo marketplace is potentially very lucrative for sellers.

Why Dropship with Spartoo?

If you’re able to work with DropShipping suppliers that are local to where customers are placing their orders, you can ensure delivery is completed in good time, rather than shipping taking longer from suppliers in different countries.

Rather than selling branded items through general marketplaces where doubt can be cast on the authenticity of products, Spartoo customers have confidence when ordering due to the diligence of the Spartoo team. The team carefully verify the product range of retailers before they are allowed to join the platform, which means few – if any – counterfeit and fake goods make it onto the marketplace. Customers know this, and so are confident in their purchases from sellers on the Spartoo platform.

Pros and Cons of Spartoo DropShipping business

There are plenty of integrations available for Spartoo, and so you should be able to connect with a number of eCommerce and retail systems using the available API information. There is phone and email support available during normal UK office hours, but Spartoo isn’t for beginners. If you’re a seasoned seller, you’re likely to be successful with Spartoo – and you can try the marketplace for free (with just commission to be paid on items you sell) if you apply through this link.

Spartoo are pretty strict about who are allowed to sell on their platform – you’ll need to have a minimum of 250 SKUs, and sellers that don’t have permission from the brand owner may find that they aren’t permitted to join. The sign up process may take a couple of days or longer, so if you’re DropShipping, be sure to obtain that permission before you sign up, to save time and to ensure you’re able to start listing quickly and efficiently.
