eBay offers lifeline for small businesses impacted by Coronavirus

eBay have today offered a lifeline for small businesses who don’t currently sell on the marketplace. Many of these businesses are self employed and seen their income plummet as their shops or market stalls have been shut down and yet have stock ready to go. Others will be independent shops, again with shelves stacked full of stock and yet unable to open to the public. It’s worth remembering that despite the huge growth in ecommerce, a massive 82% of retail is still offline. The eBay lifeline for small businesses can also offer a home to those Amazon sellers who are unable to replenish their FBA stock or have seen delivery dates for stock currently in FBA extended out by a month.
