La Poste Marketplace is a French retailer marketplace connected to one of the country’s most trusted national service brands. Launched in 2020 to enrich the product offer on Laposte.fr, the marketplace focuses on practical categories such as packaging, office supplies, mailboxes, stationery, collectors’ products and other products aligned with shipping, home office and everyday needs.
The marketplace is especially relevant for brands and retailers looking to expand marketplace coverage, test a trusted French channel and reach shoppers who already visit Laposte.fr for postal, delivery and service-related needs. Sellers benefit from La Poste’s strong brand awareness, trust and proximity, but must meet clear quality expectations.
Through Lengow, sellers can prepare their La Poste catalogue, segment eligible products, map categories and attributes, synchronise stock and prices, manage marketplace orders and centralise reporting through a Mirakl-based workflow.
