Local Heroes

Besides the major players like Noon and Amazon, there are many other online marketplaces in Dubai and Saudi you might not be aware of. For instance, did you know that in addition to selling on Noon, you can also list your products on Carrefour, and Toys“R”Us.

These are also examples of marketplaces where multiple sellers can list their products. We refer to these lesser-known marketplaces as Local Heroes: local platforms that retailers, wholesalers, or brand owners should not overlook.

Selling on Marketplaces in Saudi Arabia

In our neighboring country Saudi Arabia, Amazon is by far the largest player in the marketplace sector with a revenue of over millions in 2023. Selling through Amazon.sa is therefore the most popular in this country. Nevertheless, the smaller marketplaces in Saudi Arabia might also be worth adding to your sales channels. Keep in mind that selling in Saudi Arabia might have stricter criteria and regulations compared to other regions, depending on the platform and product types.

  • Noon – Noon is an online marketplace with millions of active customers, primarily for fashion and lifestyle items, but also multimedia and furniture.
  • Dubizzle – Dubizzle is a globally known platform where both second-hand and new items are offered. Especially in Saudi Arabia, Dubizzle, alongside Amazon, is one of the larger platforms for buying and selling almost anything.
  • Carrefour – With over 5,000 categories, Carrefour offers nearly everything you might look for. The high number of millions monthly visitors shows that this is a serious platform, also active in Europe.
