Marketplace products will be integrated with the existing product range on boots.com, offering customers access to hundreds of new brands across established names and new sellers.
Powered by Mirakl, customers will still enjoy a single checkout for mixed baskets and access to the likes of Boots Advantage Card points.
Paula Bobbett, Chief Digital Officer at Boots, says: “Marketplace is the exciting next step in our digital transformation programme.”
