TradeTalk Market Place a Success at the Outdoor Trade Show
Export Technologies presentation of their Online Market Place “Trade Talk” at the 2009 Outdoor Trade Show in Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire proved to be a major success. The Show is the premier Trade Event in the UK for the Outdoor Industry. All brands and product ranges are exhibited and attendance ranges from major players of the leading brands to independent outdoor retailers to outdoor enthusiasts to the press.
In an industry where an ever growing proportion of retail takes place online, it was surprising to see but less than a handful of eCommerce providers exhibiting, with TradeTalk being the only service provider to offer a solution attractive to all parties.
The level of interest in TradeTalk was strong with appeal to a number of different parties. To the Independent Retailer TradeTalk offered an additional source of online exposure and opportunity to substantially increase revenue with no associated risk. Brands expressed interest in the functionality and adaptability of the platform. To the Press TradeTalk's potential was of interest. Being a unique solution at the Show – TradeTalk proved advantageous to all parties, offering greater efficiency in the online retail market, allowing consumers to find products, sellers, read reviews and make fully informed purchase decisions.
While operating on the principles of Amazon, TradeTalk was said to provide much more of a ‘face’ acting as an online community for the Outdoor Enthusiast with ever growing involvement in sponsoring expeditions.
From the interest expressed at the Show, TradeTalk is set to further develop over the following year. As the number of independent retailers listing grows, TradeTalk will become a household name as the UK’s complete Outdoor Market Place with almost every conceivable Outdoor Product and Service listed.
