Sell to professionals in the hospitality and retail industries without complicating your management processes

Brands, manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers looking to sell on the METRO marketplace will find a channel here specifically tailored to the unique needs of professionals—primarily restaurant owners, hoteliers, retailers, and artisans. As a long-standing player in the wholesale and food marketplace sectors, METRO is particularly well-regarded among restaurant owners, hoteliers, independent retailers, artisans, and microbusinesses and SMEs.
Its marketplace allows partner sellers to showcase their products to customers seeking equipment, supplies, and solutions tailored to their professional activities. While most marketplaces are primarily aimed at consumers, METRO has built its model around a single target audience: professionals—with industry expertise that few general-purpose players can claim.
For suppliers, this means direct access to a customer base found nowhere else: professionals in the restaurant, hospitality, and retail industries who are looking for equipment and supplies tailored to their businesses—plus the added benefit of the reputation of a long-standing player in the professional distribution sector. With Market Invaders, managing your METRO Marketplace product catalog (including offers and orders) is automated—no re-entry or technical development required on your part.
For Professionals

A marketplace designed to meet the needs of professionals

METRO’s strength lies in its long-standing position as a supplier to professionals and its ability to offer a product lineup tailored to a wide range of industries. Restaurants, cafes, hotels, caterers, retailers, and businesses seek products that meet specific needs: suitable equipment, availability, reliability, performance, and operational efficiency.
The METRO marketplace aligns with this approach by offering a complementary selection of products focused specifically on professional equipment, restaurant supplies, business furnishings, and the supplies necessary for business operations. Selling on METRO thus allows sellers to showcase their products in an environment tailored to the needs of professionals and the specific requirements of their trade.

Comprehensive and reliable product information
Regularly updated inventory
An organization capable of processing orders efficiently
