The case study provides an in-depth analysis of how ShopUp has enabled MSMEs to develop and function steadily, creating vast scopes for the retail industry of Bangladesh. Targeting its activities toward the most unorganized retail sector of the Asian market, where small businesses lack technological expertise for e-business management, capital or loan procurement methods, credible sourcing products or active delivery chains, ShopUp has managed to become the top B2B e-commerce platform of the country. Therefore, the case deconstructs the service infrastructure of ShopUp and uncovers how it moved through the development timeline, transforming from a credit provider into a unique and diversified service provider that boosted the lagging retail industry’s performance by integrating f-commerce into its operations. Following this, the study identifies the major turning points in ShopUp's journey and how it converted external challenges into market opportunities. The case then delves into ShopUp’s success factors and highlights how the company’s efficient leadership team fostered relevant partnerships and focused on vertical expansions. The final section examines ShopUp’s existing issues and suggests potential alternatives to overcome the constraints imposed by those challenges. Overall, the case study demonstrates how a company may use innovative technology to expand customer scope and redefine corporate growth.
