Australian-owned B2B marketplace startup TradeSquare has secured two industry alliances in as many months and has expanded its product range to more than 150,000 items.
The Australian Gift & Homewares Association (AGHA), which operates the Gift Fairs trade shows, has launched a collaboration with TradeSquare to provide its members with an online AGHA marketplace where members can wholesale trade products.
In a second alliance, TradeSquare has teamed with the Accommodation Association (AA) to make it easier for those in the accommodation industry to source supplies and products for their business.
AGHA chief executive, Wayne Castle, said his staff have been working hard to develop new platforms and opportunities to help members promote their products and generate sales during the COVID-19 crisis.

Small businesses that make gifts and homewares have been thrown yet another curveball, with the continuing COVID-19 outbreak in Sydney prompting the organisers of the popular AGHA Gift Fairs to cancel next month’s event in the city.
The AGHA Sydney Gift Fair was due to take place from 19 to 22 February at the showgrounds at Sydney’s Olympic Park, and hundreds of exhibitors had already booked their spots, including those travelling from outside the state capital, and who had booked accommodation nearby.
More than 300 businesses had already signed up to attend or exhibit at the fair, which in previous years had attracted more than 10,000 visitors and buyers across the three days.
