About Opptra
Opptra (www.opptra.com) is revolutionizing global expansion for consumer brands with a focus on ecommerce and digital capabilities. We're building a portfolio of category-specialized franchising businesses, powered by our centralized technology platform and global supply chain infrastructure.
We create market access through franchising businesses that serve as master franchisees or licensing partners for brands entering new markets. Unlike traditional distribution partners that prioritize brick-and-mortar channels, our businesses leverage advanced ecommerce expertise to accelerate market entry while balancing online and offline channels to match local consumer behavior.
With 70% of global consumer growth driven by Asia, we're currently focused on enabling access to these high-potential markets. Our model offers brands significant advantages:
* Reduced market entry costs
* Broader consumer reach
* Faster testing and learning capabilities than traditional retail
* Local expertise with global backing
