Matthew Furneaux, Director of Location Intelligence, at Loqate said, “International expansion is a huge opportunity for retailers, with the cross-border eCommerce market expected to reach a value of $2.25 trillion by 2026. But it is critical that this is done with customer experience front of mind – our own research revealed that 41% of customers will place blame on the retailer if their order is late and 40% will abandon their cart and seek out a competitor if they face address entry issues.
At Loqate, we understand locations better than the people who live there, and only with the best quality location data, will brands be enabled to take full advantage of the growing international consumer market. We are excited to partner with Shoplazza, bringing Loqate’s most curated location data to their ecosystem of retailers and brands and helping them reach customers across the globe.”
