factori.com Launches Platform to Help Indians Own Their E-Commerce Brands
factori.com, a Bengaluru-based manufacturing and sourcing platform, has launched retailing.factori.com, enabling individuals to create their own e-commerce businesses with personalized domains, websites, and payment gateways without inventory purchase. This model, called "truecommerce," allows sellers to own their brand, customer relationships, and margins, contrasting with traditional marketplaces where sellers pay commissions and lack control over customer data. The platform aims to empower Indian sellers to build their own brands rather than contributing to marketplace brands.
