Neteven has allowed GPE to obtain a 7 digit NMV (Net Merchandise Value)

Neteven allowed the 3 GPE brands (Sergent Major, Du Pareil au Même, Natalys) to be integrated on the Zalando marketplace in record time. They were quickly published in 6 European countries and immediately aroused the interest of customers with high sales volumes. 

In 1 year of partnership, Neteven has allowed GPE to obtain a 7 digit NMV (Net Merchandise Value). After the success of this initial project on Zalando, GPE now plans to be present on other marketplaces to acquire new customers.

GPE, a French reference in children's fashion

-The Générale pour l’enfant group (GPE), founded by Paul Zemmour, is a French leader in children’s fashion. It comprises 3 brands:

Launch on Zalando in 1 month and increase sales

Integrate marketplaces into your e-commerce strategy to reach more consumers

In 2021, the group decided to change its e-commerce strategy and chose a channel that it had never used before: marketplaces.

In addition to the websites of its 3 brands, GPE aimed to diversify and harness the full potential of marketplaces to reach more consumers and therefore increase its sales.

Neteven to launch quickly on Zalando

The group's objective was to include as many products as possible to start selling as quickly as possible, a real challenge knowing the difficulties associated with integration on marketplaces.

The management of numerous data flows as well as the lack of time and knowledge, led the group to call on the expertise of Neteven.

Outlook : new marketplaces in GPE's e-commerce strategy

Neteven, partner of the largest national and international fashion marketplaces

In the future, the GPE group hopes to develop its presence on new marketplaces to showcase its 3 brands.

By positioning itself in new markets, the objective for GPE is to reach different audiences and acquire more fashion-oriented customers.

For this, the group can count on the recommendations and advice of Neteven, partner of the largest national and international fashion marketplaces, adapted to the positioning of the group's brands.

The connection of the Neteven platform to the largest marketplaces facilitates technical integration

GPE is confident about the technical integration on these new marketplaces as it knows that the Neteven platform is connected to those that represent future opportunities for the 3 brands.

Over the next few years, Neteven experts will continue to support the GPE group in its e-commerce strategy and at every stage of its growth on marketplaces.
