Choosing the right architecture for a marketplace is a strategic decision. It affects Total Cost of Ownership, time-to-market, operational scalability, and long-term maintainability.
Building a multi-vendor platform on top of a traditional single-store engine often leads to custom workarounds, unclear responsibility boundaries, growing technical debt, and costly rewrites at a later stage.

This e-book introduces Dafré – a marketplace distribution built on Sylius Plus. It is designed as a production-ready reference project for teams planning a multi-vendor platform with clear vendor, order, shipment, commission, and approval flows.
Understand why a marketplace is not just another feature added to an existing store, but a change in responsibilities, processes, and platform design.
See how first-party sales and third-party vendors can coexist within one platform without mixing operational and financial flows.
Learn why vendor management, order splitting, commissions, RBAC, vendor-specific shipping logic, and approval workflows should be designed into the architecture from the beginning.
Explore how Dafré combines Sylius Plus modules, open-source plugins, and ready business flows to reduce implementation risk and shorten the path from concept to production.
This guide is intended for CTOs, Heads of Engineering, product owners, eCommerce managers, software houses, and organizations planning marketplace growth as a long-term strategic initiative.
