The "2024 Global Marketplaces Report" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Transactions are the future of marketplaces. Is your business positioned to dominate? Check out what your competition may be up to (though you should probably already know) and what strategies you may want to consider.

In the marketplace for sneakers or trainers? The re-commerce action is, as the kids say, "fire," and we've got the details you need, including a bit about a pair that sold for $60K. You are not imagining the 'K.'

All hail the super-app! Classified listings, transactions, delivery, financial services, all integrated into one. It's Kaspi, the friendly app, in Kazakhstan.

GenAI remains at the front of the trends - but not in our report! It's almost exclusively generated by our (human) global team of writers, analysts, data geeks and designers. And an AI-generated poem.

Inside the 130 + page report, you'll find:

• Strategies and tactics of some of the most interesting and largest general marketplaces in the world
• Companies to watch
• Marketplace groups by revenue: The world's Top 65
• Top 50 list identifies the largest general marketplace and classified sites worldwide
• The leading general marketplaces / classified companies in 67 countries and much more
