Maxeda DIY Group and Newcraft accelerate international growth through marketplaces

Maxeda DIY Group, parent company of DIY chains Praxis, Brico and BricoPlanit, has been active in the European market through marketplaces since 1 September. Newcraft is helping the company to accelerate their international growth by taking on the management of marketplaces such as Amazon and ManoMano. Together, Maxeda and Newcraft invest in the future and successful operation of these platforms.

 

Maxeda has been offering products through international marketplaces for some time, but wants to accelerate and expand into new countries and channels and chose Newcraft to support this. Newcraft’s expertise around successful platforms such as bol.com and Amazon will be used to achieve sales growth through this channel. A team of marketplace specialists works closely with Maxeda to achieve this.
