Development of a Regulated Premium Sneaker Marketplace Platform

The current regional aftermarket sneaker marketplace is unregulated, making it difficult for consumers to verify product authenticity, which undermines trust and impedes sales. Existing foreign platforms are hindered by high import costs and shipping complexities, reducing their appeal to local consumers. There is a need for a localized, regulated platform that ensures authenticity and provides a seamless buying and selling experience for sneaker enthusiasts.
