The Covid-19 pandemic has changed the way Australian consumers shop. One notable change is the increase in the number of purchases made from Aussies.
73% of Australian households now shop online, with 10% of total retail sales being done online in Australia, according to Australia Post.
Dr. Says Matthew McDougall, "Australians are great at developing great product initiatives, but many, as brand owners, struggle to develop brand awareness and even more difficult to scale when orders are placed."
"That's why BuyNatural created an online marketplace that works with new and aspiring brand owners to help them build brand awareness, reach and sales."
Dr. McDougall, who also owns BuyNatural, said, “BuyNatural provides third party warehousing, fulfillment and marketing services to help the brand owner develop their e-commerce sales.
"We want to become the Amazon for Australian natural, organic and eco-friendly products – with a real focus on helping small and medium-sized Australian brands generate sales and revenue."
To ensure customer satisfaction, BuyNatural conducts product reviews for new brands that come onto the market.

The deal is already successful as the brands already in the market have seen "an unprecedented increase in demand for their products across the country," says the BuyNatural team.
"Indeed," says Dr. McDougall, "BuyNatural e-commerce sales have grown month by month this year. Our Australian trading partners need to scale to respond to increasing demand."
Dr. McDougall elaborates on their specific landmarks, saying, “It won't be easy to take over a monolithic platform like Amazon. However, we are determined to provide a place for Australians to purchase authentic natural and organic Australian products with ease and to help local Australian businesses do this. "
