eBay, a global commerce company, has today announced the appointment of Vidmay Naini as general manager for eBay’s global emerging markets, including the Middle East.
Mr Vidmay will drive Ebay’s growth in key emerging markets covering India, Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, Israel, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America.
“I am delighted to step into this global role. There is a significant opportunity to scale up eBay’s mission of empowering people and creating economic opportunity for all by expanding our efforts across these regions,” said Mr Naini.
“The digital economy is exponentially growing in these markets, with small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) propelling its growth. Global e-commerce platforms such as eBay can revolutionise export opportunities and expand the reach these businesses can achieve. Through our global marketplace, my team and I look forward to establishing and enhancing the retail exports ecosystem for businesses to grow and reach consumers across the world.”
