Market Czech Market – potential, strategy, and development prospects for ECAT eCommerce
We, as ECAT eCommerce, aspire to become a leader in the e-commerce sector and announce our ambitious plans for expansion into new international markets, with a primary focus on the Czech Republic. In this article, we will take a closer look at this strategic move, analyzing the potential of the Czech market and the company’s strategy.
Top priority – Czech Republic in focus
In the current year, ECAT eCommerce is actively preparing for international expansion. In Manager 2.0, you can already see our preparations for several countries. Although operational readiness has been achieved for the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic emerges as the easiest market to launch, making it a strategic goal for ECAT eCommerce.
Enormous potential of the Czech Market to exploit
The e-commerce market in the Czech Republic records impressive growth, ranging from 20% to 30% year-on-year, resulting in a value of 12.5 billion PLN in 2022. This growth dynamic is comparable to the Polish e-commerce market in 2017, making the Czech Republic an attractive target for e-commerce businesses. To stay updated on the Czech market’s growth, you can follow it on the Czech website.
Development perspectives – analysis of turnovers in the Czech Republic distributed market structure – opportunity for ECAT eCommerce as a new player in the Czech Market.
In Poland, there is one dominant player in the market, Allegro, responsible for about 30% of the turnover in the Polish market. In the Czech Republic, the situation is slightly different, as there are several services operating with the highest turnovers.
One of the key attractive elements of the Czech market is its distributed structure, with no dominant company, unlike in Poland. This opens the door for new players, making it easier for smaller brands to enter and establish themselves in the market. This is crucial for ECAT eCommerce, as we plan to leverage this situation to our advantage and establish a presence in the Czech market.
On this distributed market, generating significant turnovers, we can enter with a large number of our online stores, just like other online store networks do. This way, we can secure a good position without the fear of entering a competitive market unprepared. With good infrastructure, we can achieve spectacular results in the Czech company we are currently establishing.
Our Driving Force – Manager 3.0, Providing New Development Opportunities for Us and Our Partners and Investors
At ECAT eCommerce, we are also technologically ready to introduce innovative solutions. Although we currently operate on Manager 2.0, we eagerly await Manager 3.0. After implementing the new software, we see even greater opportunities for more effective operations in our market and, also, in the Czech and other markets we plan to enter. We are completing logistical preparations and finalizing the registration of ECAT eCommerce s.r.o., equivalent to a LTD company in the United Kingdom or a Spółka Z.O.O. in Poland.
The Czech market is ready for technological innovations.
An important aspect worth noting is that the Czech Republic is a country with a high standard of living. This means that consumers are more inclined to shop online, and their preferences for exclusive products open up new opportunities for ECAT eCommerce.
Our actions are based on the work of professionals. We collaborate with legal and structural offices in developing a business plan. This is not a whim of Grzegorz Ciupka. After all, no one is the alpha and omega. We merely point out certain mechanisms based on various levers because that’s what we know.
In every step of our business development, we rely on the opinions of professionals who advise us on many aspects related to the growth of our business. They have organized everything the way we see it today. We are consistently working on details and adding new elements, preparing for an even larger scale of operation according to the criteria and assumptions we received in 2017. Our goal is to capture 5% of the Polish market by 2025.
Increasing tendency of Czechs to shop through online stores
The Czech Republic presents significant growth potential, and the unique consumer behavior, inclination toward online shopping, and the evolving e-commerce ecosystem make it an interesting place for Polish sellers and investors. ECAT eCommerce recognizes this opportunity and is actively preparing to enter the Czech market as soon as possible. Currently, we are in the final stages of completing the necessary elements.
Unique consumer characteristics of Czechs.
It is worth noting the unique consumer characteristics in the Czech market. Czechs not only seek attractive prices for their favorite products but are also willing to pay more for exclusive and high-quality products. ECAT eCommerce plans to leverage this specificity by providing diverse products and catering to different market segments through the Full Dropshipping business model based on a network of stores utilizing our innovative software.
Technological tools for positioning our activities online and in international markets.
In technological terms, our company is thriving. We look boldly into the future and eagerly await the arrival of Manager 3.0, which will streamline operations not only for us but also for our partners, opening up new development opportunities.
In ECAT eCommerce, we see potential not only in the sales platform itself but also in positioning tools such as (1) the Google customer review system and (2) a multilingual blog, which are intended to support effective positioning in foreign markets.
Zero marketing budget. We operate based on the value of our product.
An essential element of the ECAT eCommerce strategy is also a zero marketing budget. Our focus is directed at (1) the value of the product we possess, (2) attention to the customers we serve, and (3) developing organic traffic that can bring success without the need for significant advertising expenses.
Of course, we have plans and are prepared to launch appropriate marketing to acquire wholesalers, manufacturers, partners, and, more importantly, customers who will make purchases through our network of stores operating on Manager 3.0.
Summary – Prospects for the development of our company ECAT eCommerce in the Czech Republic.
In summary, the development prospects for our company in the Czech Republic are promising. Expanding into the Czech market is a strategic move for ECAT eCommerce, in line with the analysis of the market’s potential and specific characteristics. Growth, the absence of dominating giants, consumer inclination toward online shopping, and readiness for technological innovations create favorable conditions for the success of the company. The Czech Republic is not just another market for ECAT eCommerce but a place where investments and a professional approach to the expansion process offer a chance for long-term success.
