Office products retailer Staples of Framingham has reached agreement on a multi-year contract extension with CommerceHub of Albany, N.Y., which helps companies deliver their orders, according to a statement from Staples.
Staples, which has worked with CommerceHub for nearly 10 years, is boosting its online retail presence while scaling back its brick-and-mortar presence. It has also launched an online marketplace, Staples Exchange, which invites vendors to sell their wares through Staples’ web site.
“CommerceHub’s platform and service are reliable and invaluable assets in helping Staples effectively expand inventory, manage suppliers and coordinate fulfillment,” Peter Scala, senior vice president of ecommerce for Staples, said in a statement. “Our continuing partnership is essential to maintaining successful operations” as Staples continues to develop the Exchange site.
“Staples has been an outstanding partner for nearly 10 years and we are pleased to extend our relationship and continue supporting its business growth,” CommerceHub CEO Frank Poore added.
