About

We are an eCommerce Marketplace Agency that provides all-inclusive services to help brands drive sales on online marketplaces.

Part of the Aleva Stores Family

Standing on the shoulders of giants.

Our Story

Launched in 2015, Retail Bloom stemmed from an organic outgrowth of our parent company, Aleva Stores. After seeing success in our own marketplace division, we quickly realized that our knowledge and expertise could be used to help other companies. With continued discussion and planning, leadership made the decision to branch out to provide marketplace advising and solutions for other businesses.

Today, we are in the top 1% of sellers on Amazon, and we’ve grown to become a trusted third-party marketplace service provider for numerous thriving brands. Our vision is to nurture our brand’s strategy and stay ahead of the game in the marketplace world. Retail Bloom strives to give your brand an evolutionary advantage in the competitive jungle that is the Amazon Marketplace.

Since 2011, Aleva Stores commitment to innovation has earned us a place on Internet Retailer’s Top 500 e-Retailers list and Inc. 5000’s list of the Fastest Growing Private Companies in America.
