SYDNEY — 5 April 2023 — BigCommerce (Nasdaq: BIGC), a leading Open SaaS ecommerce platform for fast-growing and established B2C and B2B brands, today announced the company has won two 2023 VIP Awards from Retail Global's Vendors in Partnership (VIP) Australia: The VIP Challenger Award and Best Cross-Industry Collaboration/360 Degree Solution. BigCommerce is recognized with these prestigious awards for its disruptive innovation with its Open SaaS, partner-centric approach that equips merchants with a composable foundation for ambitious growth.
“This recognition is a fantastic acknowledgment of BigCommerce’s focus on empowering merchants to innovate and remain adaptable amidst shifting economic conditions. As BigCommerce leads a new era of ecommerce, we are committed to driving innovation for our merchants by giving them freedom and flexibility to combine technologies from our best-in-breed partner ecosystem to create a customised and robust stack that grows as they grow, and respond unexpected change,” said Shannon Ingrey, vice president and general manager, APAC at BigCommerce. “Congratulations to all of the finalists and winners of these prestigious VIP Awards.”
Working with Elite agency partner Deity and technology partners Algolia and Talon.one, BigCommerce’s approach to helping build adaptable, customer-first ecommerce platforms was demonstrated through its work with enterprise merchants including express alcohol delivery service Jimmy Brings. Having developed a progressive web app (PWA) storefront built on BigCommerce’s headless architecture, Jimmy Brings is one of the first ecommerce platforms hosted locally by BigCommerce in Australia. Jimmy Brings is an outstanding example of what the future of web technology looks like – a hyper-flexible platform full of enterprise power and a user experience without limitations.
The Vendors in Partnership (VIP) Awards celebrates the solutions that power the retail ecosystem, and the new ways that partnerships were formed and challenges were overcome. The event includes Australian vendors forging stronger relationships, giving retailers a formal way to support, influence and recognize partners who intergate business methodologies based on shared success measures and service levels derived from the retailer’s needs.
