Odoo Marketplace Hyperlocal System – Webkul Store

The ‘Near me’ searches on Google have seen a 500% increase in the last two years. And the Odoo Marketplace Hyperlocal system aims to provide sellers nearest to the customers’ location.

The customer simply enters the location of his choice and the Odoo website displays the products and sellers available in the nearby vicinity; so the customers can shop from their nearest seller. It helps to save both delivery time and cost.

The shopping radius for a seller can be set by the admin. You can also add shipping rates for each seller with the hyperlocal shipping method.

While local devices are based on a geographical location, hyperlocal targets a smaller area which can be 3-5 km in radius. Hyperlocal targeting allows for a localized experience for the customer.

With Odoo Hyperlocal Marketplace concept you can bring offline local sellers to the customers and vice versa.
