Post Walmart’s acquisition of 77 per cent stake in Flipkart, the Indian e-commerce giant says it is seeing higher level of interest from sellers to register themselves onto its platform. According to the Bengaluru-based firm, its rate of addition of new sellers has doubled during the last six months period, in the run up to its BigBillionDays sale next month.
We have one lakh plus registered sellers. In the last six months, we have (seen) new sellers going live on Flipkart doubling (in number)," said Nishant Gupta, Senior Director Marketplace at Flipkart. While the addition of sellers has happened across the board, categories like fashion, home-related segments have seen most additions.
Entire fashion category has seen a phenomenal growth. In fashion, you have clothing, accessories, footwear. Then, we have also seen growth in home-related segments like furnishings, decor and household items. Even general merchandise items like toys and baby products have seen a lot of growth," added Gupta
Gupta said, the company has reduced its fixed fee, courier charges which has made it a lot more lucrative for sellers
