BaseLinker and Postis sign a partnership to make it easier for Romanian online retailers to access new markets abroad

BaseLinker, the market leader in Poland specializing in the aggregation and automation of e-commerce processes, and Postis, the Romanian leader in delivery services’ management and optimization, announce a strategic partnership integrating their platforms for easy and fast access of Romanian e-commerce operators to international markets.

In the current economic context affected by inflation, socio-political uncertainties, and rising operating costs, Eastern Europe retailers, in general, and Romanian retailers, in particular, are facing a reduced willingness to buy from their customers and anticipate a likely contraction of local markets for some product categories. Expansion into new markets is becoming a priority, and cross-border e-commerce is a way to stabilize the business in the short term, enabling growth in the medium to long term.

– aligned and optimized processes, automated as much as possible, to ensure rigorous management, regardless of the complexity of operations;

– an increased capacity to test different target segments, types of products, and available deployment resources, to analyze partial results, to adapt and scale the viable models;
