Join to apply for the Account Executive - Fulfillment role at Ankorstore 3 days ago Be among the first 25 applicants About Us Launched in 2019 by four co‑founders, experts in the retail and marketplace sectors, Ankorstore has established itself as Europe’s leading B2B platform connecting brands and independent retailers. Ankorstore is built on a simple yet vital insight: independent retailers are essential to the vibrancy and attractiveness of our town centres. However, faced with evolving consumer habits and the dominance of mass retail and e‑commerce, these local businesses often struggle to adapt and innovate. To address this challenge, Ankorstore has developed an innovative, global, and technology‑driven solution that enables independent retailers to diversify their product ranges while benefiting from competitive commercial terms. Brands, in turn, benefit from a strong network and efficient tools to extend their reach and boost their activity. The Team Logistics is a pain for both retailers and brands. Independent retailers struggle with inventory management and reliable delivery, while brands prefer to focus on marketing and product. Our mission is to delight our customers by creating an amazing product and delivery experience. We help brands ship their orders seamlessly and everywhere by partnering with the most relevant logistics partners.
