MYER has launched a new online marketplace in an apparent bid to remain competitive against retail
giant Amazon. The Myer Market is a new online platform that stocks a curated range of home,
entertainment and lifestyle products and experiences. It will operate independently from
myer.com.au, but purchases will still qualify for Myer One loyalty points and rewards. Most goods
purchased on Myer Market can also be returned in Myer stores. It will be launched as a beta and is
being developed in partnership with Marketplacer, the team behind Bike Exchange. Myer’s chief
digital and data officer Mark Cripsey said the offering was a “new frontier” for the brand.
Question: Do an analysis of Myer’s business strategy with Porter’s Five Forces Model (Threat
of new entrants, Bargaining power of suppliers, Bargaining power of buyers, Threat of
substitutes, Intensity of rivalry).
