International sales expansion

Ecommerce internationalisation: extend your online store to the leading marketplaces and sell in new foreign markets.

The problem

Selling only through your own website or in a single market strongly limits an ecommerce's growth: international marketplaces gather millions of buyers who are already ready to purchase, but opening and managing your presence across several platforms and countries comes with enormous complexity that many companies underestimate, including price lists in different currencies, different VAT rates, customs requirements, content translations and cross-border logistics. Without structured support, the risk is opening new channels without really being able to manage them, with misaligned product catalogs, incorrect stock levels and unclear delivery times that damage the brand's reputation instead of helping it grow. Expansion into international markets works when technology, administration and logistics are managed together, with automated processes rather than manual firefighting on every platform.

How we work

  1. 01

    We assess your potential

    We analyse the product, the target markets and the channels best suited to your product category, identifying the marketplaces and the countries where demand for your products is most concrete, so that resources are not wasted on markets that are unlikely to work.

  2. 02

    We integrate the channels

    We connect your ecommerce technically to the marketplaces you choose, synchronising catalogs, prices and stock levels in real time, so you avoid running out of products and mismatch situations between the various sales channels.

  3. 03

    We support your growth

    We work alongside you with administrative, logistical and technological support in the new markets, handling the most complex aspects of international expansion, so your team can focus on the product and the commercial strategy.

What's included

  • Technical integration with the leading international marketplaces
  • Automatic synchronisation of catalogs, prices and stock levels
  • Administrative support on VAT and customs documentation
  • Coordination of cross-border logistics
  • Monitoring of sales per market and per channel
  • Advice on choosing the most suitable markets and marketplaces

We needed to expand our e-commerce store for typical local products and integrate it with international platforms such as Fruugo and foreign payment networks such as Edenred. Studio Mate handled and carried out all the integrations perfectly. They have become our trusted technology partner for every evolution of our online store.

Frequently asked questions

Which international marketplaces do you integrate? +

We integrate the leading national and international marketplaces active in your sector: we then determine together which ones make real sense based on the product category, the target markets and the expected volumes. When your ecommerce is built on WooCommerce, we use its multi-currency and multilingual functions to connect the channels without duplicating the management work, before starting any integration.

Do you also handle the logistics of selling online abroad? +

Yes, thanks to our network of partners we also support the logistical and administrative aspects of selling in new markets, from shipment management to the documentation required for export.

How long does it take to open a new foreign market? +

It depends on the marketplace and the country: some technical integrations take just a few weeks, while activating the more complex administrative and logistical aspects can take longer; we define the timing together during the analysis phase.

How do you prevent price and stock inconsistencies between the channels? +

We synchronise catalogs, prices and availability in real time between your main ecommerce and the connected marketplaces, so every channel always shows up-to-date data without any manual intervention.

Does internationalisation also make sense for a small ecommerce? +

Yes, if the product has concrete demand in the foreign markets you have identified: you can start from a single marketplace or country and then expand gradually, without having to face a large-scale expansion right away.
