Why sell on the Conforama marketplace?

A solid brand, massive visibility

With over 170 stores in France , Conforama is a name familiar to all French people. This brand enjoys strong brand recognition, supported by an omnichannel media presence (TV, radio, billboards, social media).

In parallel, the e-commerce site attracts massive traffic, boosted by the stores' reputation. Conforama has successfully transformed this traffic into an opportunity through its marketplace , created in 2016.

📌 Key figures (2025, see replay) :

  • 11 million active customers

  • 185 million visits to the site

  • More than 550 active sellers

  • Approximately 800,000 product listings (following a refocusing strategy)

A clearly defined DNA: specialist in discount and home goods

The Conforama marketplace is based on two pillars:

  • Attractive prices , in line with the brand's discount DNA

  • A strong specialization in the worlds of furniture , household appliances and leisure

Which categories are performing well on the Conforama marketplace?

1. Furniture: the heart of the Conforama marketplace

This is the flagship category. It represents approximately 70% of sales on the Conforama marketplace . From sofas to mattresses, from beds to TV stands, selling on Conforama is primarily about positioning yourself on the products that French people buy when they move into or renovate their homes.

More niche, but dynamic categories. Electric scooters , for example, sell very well on this marketplace , proof that the audience is also interested in modern uses.
