If your goal is to give visibility to artisans, niche creators, or local shops you admire and want to support, you should not be held back by complex software or endless technical challenges.
With Garnet, you can launch a simple, intuitive marketplace similar to Etsy, with easy onboarding for both vendors and customers.
Our platform handles the infrastructure, integrations, and setup with dedicated support and help from our team, so you can focus on what truly matters: building strong relationships with your vendors and serving your community of buyers.
One of the biggest competitive advantages of a marketplace is the ability to give sellers visibility they could never achieve alone. This is especially true for artisans and small local shops whose reach rarely extends beyond their hometown.
Etsy is the perfect example: a platform that shines a light on independent creators while offering a seamless experience for both buyers and sellers.
At Garnet, we have already launched multiple Etsy-clone online marketplaces. We can also do it for you.

Support is provided by the Garnet team itself. When assistance is needed, marketplace operators interact with people who understand both the operational realities of running a marketplace and the technical structure of the platform.
Help is available through documentation, in-app messaging, and direct communication to help users manage setup, migrations, and day-to-day questions.
Garnet relies on established third-party providers for payment processing and transaction security. Customer payments are handled through Shopify's checkout, while vendor payouts are managed via Stripe, PayPal, or bank transfers.
This separation ensures that financial operations remain compliant and secure without adding operational overhead for the marketplace.
The platform is maintained and updated by Garnet's technical team. This includes system reliability, performance monitoring, and ongoing feature development.
Marketplace operators do not need to manage hosting, updates, or maintenance tasks, making the platform easy to run, even with a small team, and allowing them to focus on seller acquisition, customer experience, and business growth.
For teams looking to validate a marketplace concept or launch quickly with limited upfront investment, combining Shopify with a multi-vendor marketplace application is an effective approach.
It avoids the cost and complexity of custom development while still providing a scalable foundation that can grow alongside the business.

Garnet is without doubt the best multivendor marketplace I've used. The platform is intuitive, simple and meets our needs perfectly. Customer support is always responsive and available.
App very useful as a marketplace. Simple intuitive, easy to manage and above all great support and quick attention by François. He helped us at all times and adapted the platform to our needs and new features for us.
After testing multiple apps, Garnet is the best marketplace app we have used. With their expertise, they've created an intuitive and simple solution (for us and vendors). Garnet is constantly improving their offering, releasing new features and their customer service is some of the best we have received.
Garnet was a breath of fresh air after struggling to get Webkul and other marketplace technologies set up. Garnet is incredibly easy to use for both me as the store owner and my vendors. It's getting new features nearly every week and constantly improving. So glad I found this app!
Garnet Marketplace is a new app but Francois is constantly updating and improving features. His customer service and integration support is next level. He responds to emails quickly and works closely with you to ensure the app is meeting your specific needs. The app is much simpler to set up and easier to navigate (for both ourselves and our vendors) than other marketplace apps we had trialled.
Garnet has been the easiest way to implement a multi-vendor marketplace into my Shopify store. Other marketplace apps like Webkul seemed so daunting to use, but with Garnet, the integration worked seamlessly with my store collections. My vendors have been able to easily track their sales with the user interface, and there was no code involved for getting the app up and running.
Having explored various multi-vendor marketplace solutions, ranging from Dokan to Shopify Multi-vendor, I can confidently say that none surpasses the excellence of Garnet. Garnet simplifies the vendor account setup, product addition, and payment process, creating a user-friendly environment that incentivizes vendors to join your platform. What sets Garnet apart is not only its exceptional...
We installed the Webkul Market Place app and it covers all the bases, however, it requires much time and experience. Along comes Garnet and everything is so much easier and better. François the developer is a good man who responds promptly when needed. I highly recommend the Garnet Marketplace app.
