Why should I act quickly to join Target Plus? 

Target Plus prides itself on being extremely selective when it comes to its vendors. By limiting one seller per UPC, they ensure your products gain maximum visibility, but this also means spots are limited. That’s why it’s crucial to secure your spot on Target Plus before your competition does.

1. Protect your market position.

Target Plus values high-quality brands and niches over a large selection. This exclusivity allows you to build a competitive moat around your business and establish a strong market presence.

2. Boost your brand’s visibility.

Being a Target Plus seller gives your business massive exposure on Target.com, which in 2023 registered 164.9 million visits in just one month. As an approved Target Plus seller, you’ve been carefully selected by Target, giving your brand instant credibility. The distinctive Target Plus logo next to your name signals to customers that your products meet Target’s high standards. 

3. Strengthen your position in the market.

Selling on Target Plus elevates your brand’s standing in the marketplace. As an approved seller, you gain prestige and credibility, which opens doors to new opportunities and partnerships. With Target Plus backing, you can explore collaborations previously out of reach and secure exclusive deals and a competitive edge. Ultimately, your Target Plus status strengthens your bargaining power and solidifies your market position, enabling you to lead in your niche and seize new growth opportunities.

4. Enhance your business relationships.
