VALUES

Focus on rock-solid results

Marketplaces are not about chance. Success comes from making the right choices, time and time again. At Merkado, we work according to set principles that define how we think, how we work and how we create value for our customers.

Always three steps ahead

As a preferred partner, we are the first to be there when marketplaces update their platform.

Clout & speed

With us, no slow processes or endless strategy sessions. Starting today = selling tomorrow.

Results above all

We measure, test and optimize until your ads and product pages not only perform, but dominate.

Winning mindset

When you work with Merkado, you play at the highest level. We are allergic to mediocrity.

WHY

Your product, dominant in every marketplace

The landscape around marketplaces is becoming more complex by the day. We feel that brands and wholesalers and retailers could use a helping hand to boost their sales. We extend that hand. We make sure your products appear in the best possible conditions.

/mɛrˈkaːdo/

The word Merkado has its origins in the Spanish word for “market,” a place where commerce flourishes, ideas converge and brands find their audience.

For us, it’s more than a name; it tells our story. It embodies our focus on marketplaces like Bol.com and Amazon, where brands and consumers meet.
