Sales channels in Poland and Romania: which one to choose?

The essentials in 30 seconds

The right channel depends on your product, your price and how much you can invest in logistics and marketing. Most brands start with a marketplace (eMAG, Allegro), then add price comparison sites, their own store or distribution. 64% of companies selling online in Poland and 42% in Romania use marketplaces [3].

Updated: 14 Nov 2026

General marketplace

The most traffic and the fastest start. Shoppers are already there, but price competition is strong.

RO: eMAG · PL: Allegro

Global platforms

Big traffic and aggressive prices. For Polish and Romanian brands they are more often competition than a sales channel.

PL: Temu, Amazon.pl, AliExpress, Shein

Price comparison sites

Traffic from shoppers who already know what they want and compare prices.

RO: Compari · PL: Ceneo

Classifieds and C2C

A cheap demand test and an outlet for end-of-line, used or refurbished products.

RO and PL: OLX

Distribution and retail

Scale and offline presence. A distributor takes on part of the logistics and the relationship with retailers.

B2B: distributors, wholesalers, retail chains

Your own store

Full control of your brand, customer data and margin. But you have to build the traffic yourself.

Store + price comparison + campaigns
