Selling on the Blocket online marketplace
Getting started on Blocket
Blocket (or The Block) operates as a marketplace using a classified ads format. But, you can set up your own online shop as a seller.
The site sorts ads by regions, so you’ll need to have stock stored locally and be able to make listings in the local language. However, many Swedes do speak English, so posting ads in English would also work.
The Block is a popular marketplace in Sweden. It has around 5 million weekly visitors and 7 out of 10 Swedes have bought or sold on The Block.
