Many brands are selling their products directly to customers online, skipping middlemen such as wholesalers or retail stores. This is known as the D2C (direct-to-consumer) model. It allows brands to control their image, collect customer data, and offer better prices by cutting distributor costs. Online retail platforms make it easy for these brands to build user-friendly websites and manage orders, payments, and shipping. The demand for flexible e-commerce platforms is growing as more companies realize the benefits of D2C such as stronger customer relationships and higher profit margins, driving the market expansion.
