Digital Minds announced today that it has partnered up with Omnivore, Australia’s largest marketplace integrator used by over 3,500 retailers to allow its clients to connect into marketplaces across Australia and New Zealand.
The partnership now enables retailers to tap into an increasing number of channels and maximize online sales, by leveraging the group’s expertise in driving sales marketplaces such as eBay, Catch, Amazon in addition to digital channels already managed by Digital Minds, such as Google, Facebook & Instagram.
Australian retail is going through a significant transformation, with over 73% Australians shopping online, a trend which is growing at 24.4% YOY and now responsible for over 10% (or 27.5 billion) of retail revenue. While marketplaces such as eBay, Catch Group and Amazon continue to dominate the industry, growing by 31.2% YOY in 2018 (Source), other consumer channels such as Google, Facebook & Instagram have been constantly innovating to make the most of this growth in online retail and today account for circa 80% of online retailer ad spend on these channels (Source).
