Mohamad ElAnsari, Chief Executive Officer of Trendyol Gulf, said, "this partnership with Dubai Chambers is a sign of our commitment to standing by businesses at the moment it matters most".

The partnership also includes a structured training program for sellers.

The curriculum covers basic e-commerce skills such as product listing, stock management, pricing and operations. It also includes advanced modules on advertising, promotional tools and performance analysis.

Live webinars will give sellers direct access to guidance and support from platform experts.

Trendyol launched in the UAE in 2023 and has onboarded more than 15,500 regional sellers.

Through the new agreement, more Dubai-based businesses will be able to use Trendyol’s e-commerce infrastructure, sales channels and market expertise.
