Herefordshire Business News: Company on camera to help eBay sellers

9:00am Tuesday 31st January 2012 in Business By Mark Bowen

A HEREFORDSHIRE company is helping eBay users sell their goods on-line.

Bamford Trading, based in Upton Bishop near Ross-on-Wye, received a film crew from eBay to make documentaries to advise other sellers.

The company sells tools, hardware and home and leisure products at www.bamfordtrading.com and has grown to sell and dispatch more than 2,000 orders per week “Although we run our own website we use eBay as our main selling platform,” Gill Hewitt of Bamford Trading told the Hereford Times.

“When we recently achieved our 250,000 positive customer feedbacks, eBay sent a film crew to make a number of video documentaries about us so that we could share our success story and tips with others who might be thinking of starting their own on-line business.”

The company was started by Gill and John Hewitt in January 2005 when they started selling items from their kitchen table.
