The New App Helping Irish Retailers Survive the Covid-19 Crisis
Bezzu, a new free mobile app designed to help independent fashion and lifestyle retailers to compete with global online giants, has just launched for retailers and shoppers alike. Bezzu enables bricks and mortar stores (around 450 independent retailers have already signed up) without any existing online presence, to connect with and sell to customers online (at no cost to them while their physical stores are closed). “It’s the local shops that keep our streets and communities alive and we want to help them thrive,” Bezzu communications manager, Lauren Murphy, told us. The app also has a cool interactive map that allows you to find local retailers, their exact address and opening hours. There is also a virtual stylist to help with your shopping experience. To download the app, visit Play Store for Android or Apple Store for iOS. www.bezzu.com
