\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n

            \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              \n
            1. Which product range sells best?<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Although Trendyol has its roots in the clothing sector (where it remains the undisputed leader), the platform is rapidly expanding into other categories:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                \n
              • Fashion and footwear<\/span><\/b> \u2013 women\u2019s, men\u2019s and children\u2019s clothing, fashion accessories and other items,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                  \n
                • Home and garden<\/span><\/b> \u2013 home textiles, decorations, kitchen accessories,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                    \n
                  • Beauty and skincare<\/span><\/b> \u2013 cosmetics, beauty products,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                      \n
                    • Electronics and small household appliances<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                      Before entering the market, it is worth analysing the commission rate and the competition in that category in order to calculate the margin accurately.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                      \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                        \n
                      1. Market entry strategy: Start with Romania, then scale up across Europe<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                        Trendyol follows a structured expansion model for its European sellers.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                        Registration and initial implementation <\/span>It always starts with the Romanian market (currency: RON)<\/span><\/b>. Only once sales have stabilised, delivery times have been verified and a positive account rating has been established does Trendyol allow further markets to be unlocked (including the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Germany).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                        This model protects the retailer from operational chaos and allows them to fine-tune their logistics in a single market before launching sales on a mass scale.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                        \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                          \n
                        1. Translation and catalogue production \u2013 English is all that\u2019s needed<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                          One of the biggest barriers to international trade is the translation of product descriptions into local languages. Trendyol has addressed this issue systematically:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                            \n
                          1. You are exhibiting in English:<\/span><\/b> You should prepare the entire product catalogue \u2013 titles, descriptions, specifications and size charts \u2013 in English.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                              \n
                            1. The platform translates automatically:<\/span><\/b> The Trendyol system automatically translates and adapts content to the requirements of local markets (e.g. into Romanian or Czech).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                              Tip from a bTOP expert:<\/span><\/b> Despite the use of automatic translation, the accuracy of the English-language input data is crucial. Correctly completed attributes (sizes, colours, material composition) determine whether the product will appear in the relevant search filters on the platform.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                              \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                                \n
                              1. How does the process of registering a seller\u2019s account work?<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                The process of preparing the company and launching sales consists of three main steps:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                                  \n
                                1. Completing the registration form:<\/span><\/b> Providing basic company details and operational contact information.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                                    \n
                                  1. Document verification (KYC):<\/span><\/b> Please attach a copy of the entry in the National Court Register (KRS)\/Central Register of Business Activity (CEIDG), confirmation of a valid EU VAT registration number (NIP), and the identity documents of the company\u2019s representatives.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  2. Account setup and activation:<\/span><\/b> Setting up delivery terms, returns policy and a bank account for payments in local currency, as well as preparing the integration with the warehouse management system.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                    \"\"<\/p>\n

                                    \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                                      \n
                                    1. Logistics, integration and methods of listing offers (Base vs Trendyol Panel)<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                      Sales on Trendyol are conducted via a model whereby goods are dispatched from our own warehouse in Poland to the end customer abroad.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                                      A major advantage for Polish e-commerce is the fact that <\/span>Trendyol is integrated with the Base system<\/span><\/b>. This gives sellers complete flexibility in managing their catalogue and allows them to choose the operational approach that suits them best:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
