BigBuy has received the e-commerce Award for the Best Cross-Border Strategy for 2017, a prize which was awarded in the eighth edition of the Ecommerce Awards.
This award recognises the important international work of BigBuy, which has competed with some of the main players in our country’s e-commerce sector. Of the 1,000 companies that were eligible for awards, the judges chose 120 finalists, and only 8 have emerged as the best in each category. The presence of BigBuy in these awards, which are mainly focused on B2C businesses, is especially noteworthy. Even as a pure B2B, BigBuy has managed to make a space for itself amongst brands such as JustFab, Hawkers, Meller, La Redoute or Uvinum, due to their know-how in the online sales environment.
The awards ceremony brought together more than 200 e-commerce professionals, who were present at one of the benchmark events in our country. The best cross-border strategy award recognised the e-commerce business with the highest sales capacity outside of Spain. To choose the winner, the event’s judges added up the total numbers of companies that have more than 50 percent of their sales abroad.
Salvador Esteve, CEO and co-founder of BigBuy, was on hand to collect the award. “We are very grateful for this award, which recognises the enormous effort BigBuy has put into reinforcing our presence abroad,” said Esteve. “International growth is in our DNA. We currently have a B2B e-commerce business which is translated into 24 European languages, and 88% of our turnover already comes from outside Spain”.
Since its creation in 2012, BigBuy has been granted several awards by some of the most prestigious organisations in the e-commerce sector. It has been named as the most innovative e-commerce business on two occasions: the first was on the 10th anniversary of PayPal, the online payment giant; and the second was in the prestigious eAwards. It has also received awards for the best e-commerce B2B business (E-commerce Awards 2015) and best international e-commerce business (eAwards 2016).
“Having been selected from more than 120 finalists encourages us to keep on working just the way we have been doing up until now” says Esteve. “We are well on our way to consolidating ourselves as the leading dropshipping B2B wholesaler in Europe”.
