Manor is a Swiss department store marketplace with a strong reputation in fashion, beauty, home, lifestyle, electronics, food and premium retail categories. As one of Switzerland’s best-known retail brands, Manor gives professional sellers access to Swiss shoppers who value trusted brands, product quality, localised service and a premium customer experience.
The marketplace is especially relevant for brands and retailers looking to enter Switzerland, build brand presence and improve profitability in a high-trust retail environment. Manor’s partner programme is based on an e-consignment model, where Manor acts as the official seller while partners manage operational tasks such as stock, shipping and returns.
Through Lengow, sellers can prepare their Manor catalogue, segment relevant products, map categories and attributes, localise product content for Switzerland, synchronise stock and prices, manage orders and centralise reporting through a Mirakl-based workflow.

The marketplace is particularly relevant for sellers with strong brand positioning, localised product content, reliable logistics, Swiss-market readiness and a catalogue that complements Manor’s department store universe.
