CEO Rich Marsden characterised ebuyer as a “solid platform” in need of “new leadership and a fresh view” as he reflected on his first 120 days in charge of the East Yorkshire-based e-tailer during an interview with IT Channel Oxygen in August. Having peaked above £240m during lockdown, revenues came in at £170m in calendar 2022. “We under-index in each of our four verticals – B2B, B2C, system integration and marketplace,” Marsden said.
Oxygen ice-breaker: Marsden and business partner Mark Reed (pictured top) acquired ebuyer from West Retail Group in April through their ‘Realtime Holdings’ company.
