Ankorstore, based in Paris, bridges independent shop owners and brands with local retailers. Acting as a specialized marketplace, it overcomes the limitations of traditional sourcing methods like trade shows or direct outreach, which often result in limited product variety and higher sourcing costs. Ankorstore streamlines the process, offering a wider range of products and potentially lowering costs for all parties. Backed by investors like Index Ventures and Global Founders Capital, Ankorstore is well-positioned to carve a niche in the B2B ecommerce space, strengthening connections in local retail networks and enhancing visibility for independent brands.
