eBay, one of the world’s largest online marketplaces, hosted its annual Exporter of the Year 2024 event in Bangkok, Thailand, from December 3 to 4. The event brought together 100 top sellers from Global Emerging Market regions, including Eastern Europe, the Middle East, India, and Southeast Asia, to celebrate their entrepreneurial spirit and global exporting excellence.
As part of the two-day event celebrating eBay sellers, the Exporter of the Year 2024 award ceremony was held on December 4 at the Royal Orchid Sheraton Hotel & Towers. Among the participants, 24 eBay sellers were recognized for their outstanding growth and the exceptional buyer experience they provide. These accolades highlight their impressive service excellence compared to millions of other sellers across the Global Emerging Market regions.
At the event, top sellers from eBay’s global emerging markets connected with a vibrant global community made up of individuals and businesses, spanning diverse geographies, cultures, and languages. Their experiences reinforced how eBay’s tools and support have enabled cross-border trade sellers to reach new customers and successfully expand into international markets.
The gathering also facilitated knowledge sharing, cross-border partnerships, and networking opportunities among top sellers, helping them to better understand different market needs.
