holiday dropshipping

SEATTLE, Wash, November 22, 2022– With Black Friday and Cyber Monday just around the corner, leading retail innovators Brooklinen, Marquee Brands, Paperless Post, Snipes, and Bohemian Mama are leveraging fabric Marketplace to create exceptional and differentiated customer experiences as we enter retail’s most wonderful time of the year.  

As consumers begin searching for that perfect holiday gift, fabric Marketplace empowers retailers to add risk-free inventory and selection that is fulfilled  quickly and shipped directly to their customers.  There is no inventory commitment, and the retailer never handles the  order- they simply reap the benefits and revenue of increased order volume.    

“With fabric Marketplace, retailers can quickly and easily connect with dropshipping vendors around the world, offer extended assortment of highly-curated products, and shift to an on-demand inventory model,” said Faisal Masud, CEO at fabric.  “And with continued supply chain challenges, expanding selection, risk-free, just before the holidays, is  a big competitive advantage.”

SNIPES, known for providing their community with the freshest shoes, clothing and accessories, is utilizing fabric’s Marketplace to drive incremental revenue via an expanded product assortment.

“We selected fabric as a partner because I felt that as a company they are very approachable and nimble and I have a lot of belief and confidence in their leadership. It is a strategy for us for next year to focus on enhancing our assortment, having less dependency on our merchants, and being able to test and learn and help impact our buying decisions across the rest of the business” says Jenna Flateman Posner, CDO at Snipes.

Marquee Brands, known for managing a portfolio of retail brands, with a focus on organic growth and direct consumer engagement, is partnering with fabric’s deeply experienced team and building on fabric’s broad set of vendors to scale new products and categories and drive immediate growth. Some of the brands that Marquee manages that are now live on the fabric include Ben Sherman, Martha Stewart, Motherhood Maternity, Pea in the Pod, & Body Glove.

The fabric team has a breadth of experience operating marketplaces, and have collaborated with the team on brand and merchandising strategies, which resulted in  $200K in incremental revenue in the first 6 months,” said Marquee Brands’ Sara Riley, Sr. Director of Marketplace. 

Using the experience from fabric’s marketplace onboarding team and easy to use dropshipping software, A Pea in the Pod was able to expand their designer brand offering and grow their selection quickly for their maternity customers without taking on the risk and financial ownership of manufacturing the product.  

fabric marketplace enabled A Pea in the Pod to complement our assortment and capture the entire lifecycle of our customer.  By working with fabric we were able to free up dollars to invest back into our own product lines,” said Erin Downing – AVP of Merchandising for A Pea in the Pod.

In many cases, fabric’s partnership with retailers extends beyond Marketplace technology.  fabric also supports retailers and brands with a full commerce platform offering, as well as a standalone Order Management (OMS)  product.
