KaBuM! marketplace turns five and strengthens its position as a niche destination for technology and games

KaBuM!, a technology and gaming e-commerce platform, is increasingly consolidating its marketplace as a key growth driver for the company. In just five years, the operation already accounts for over 20% of revenue, with expectations to exceed 1 billion reais in sales by 2025.

Since its launch in 2020, the number of sellers has grown by over 420%, accompanied by an expansion of offerings exceeding 240 thousand items available on the platform. This growth reflects not only the strength of the digital ecosystem but also the consolidation of a niche marketplace that connects brands and retailers directly to a highly qualified and engaged audience.

"The marketplace is a key piece in our growth strategy, as it expands the portfolio, strengthens the brand, and brings us even closer to the gaming and tech community," states Fábio Gabaldo, Business Director at KaBuM!. "By connecting sellers of different profiles to an audience passionate about technology, we ensure a unique and relevant experience for everyone involved."

Niche Marketplace: An Expanding Trend

Niche marketplaces have stood out globally by offering more personalized experiences for both sellers and consumers. Unlike generalist platforms, these environments bring together a specific audience with high purchase intent and trust in the brands within the ecosystem. In the technology and gaming sector, this trend gains even more momentum: it is a rapidly expanding market, driven by the growth of the gamer audience, which already exceeds 3.7 billion people worldwide according to Newzoo, and by the increasing interest in high-performance equipment, peripherals, digital services, and solutions aimed at content creators.
