Otes goes on to say that they are delighted to expand opportunities for small businesses in Poland and are investing in tools and services that will help them grow.

It will not be easy for a company that has been operating in Poland since 2014. That’s because the country has another popular e-commerce player: Allegro. This company is sometimes called the “Polish Amazon”. The marketplace, founded in 1999, has over 12.3 million active buyers and is used by approximately 117,000 merchants.

Meanwhile, in October 2020, when Allegro CEO François Nuits announced that his company was ready to expand internationally. Nevertheless,  the fact of Amazon’s arrival to Poland didn’t seem to intimidate him
