Antons Nesterovs leads merchant success across all international markets at Allegro – the number one marketplace in Poland and a fast-growing player in Central Europe.

What “fairness” means on a large marketplace and how Allegro enforces the same rules for all merchants across markets. How AI is embedded into everyday operations at Allegro – from internal processes to seller and customer tools. Why exporting successfully can be more about mindset and experimentation than tools or technology alone. How retail media and Allegro Smart are becoming key growth drivers beyond pure GMV. ✅ Všechny epizody najdete na https://exec.shopsys.cz/podcast Líbil se vám tento díl? 🩵 Máte zpětnou vazbu nebo tip na dalšího hosta?
