What is the Bed Bath & Beyond Marketplace?

Like many retailers, Bed Bath & Beyond runs its own third-party marketplace. This is an excellent way for the company to enjoy more profits from the power of their brand. Bed Bath & Beyond allows other sellers’ product listings onto their website and enjoy a commission for every product that sells. Not only does it encourage more visits to their website, but it also improves their offering to customers without any associated costs of storage, delivery, etc.

As well as these benefits of selling on Bed Bath & Beyond, the retailer also provides customer care and account management. The company actively helps partnerships, supporting your strategy and helping you to grow your business.

How to sell on Bed Bath & Beyond

A marketplace is always open to other sellers and can be either open to all or curated. Amazon and eBay are examples of popular open marketplaces.

Because Bed Bath & Beyond wish to control who sells on their platform, and make sure that they are selling products that fit with their brand, they are operating a curated marketplace. This means that hopeful sellers must begin by registering their interest. You will be more likely to be accepted if selling bedding, bath, cookware or home décor products.

The company considers all applications within a month of merchants submitting the form. When a brand gains acceptance they will then learn more about the marketplace’s fee structure and go through the on-boarding process.

If selling on more than one marketplace, it helps to have a solid product content syndication strategy in place, and to make sure that you are always optimizing your product feed data. This is where Intelligent Reach helps retailers selling in the US, UK and Australia.
