RICHMOND, United Kingdom--(Business Wire)--ChannelAdvisor, the leading provider of e-commerce channel
management solutions, announced today that they have been selected by
eBay "Rising Star" Ace Electronics UK (eBay ID: aceelectronics_uk) to
enhance their existing eBay business and replicate this success across
multiple e-commerce channels.

   Ace Electronics UK won the prestigious "Rising Star" award at the
recent eBay Backstage Powersellers event in London, after amassing a
feedback rating of more than 33,000 in less than one year.

   Mughir Qureshi, Managing Director of Ace Electronics UK said: "We
hope to significantly expand on Ace Electronics UK initial success
over the coming months. We believe ChannelAdvisor's software will help
us streamline our business allowing us to exploit the full potential
of online marketplaces such as eBay and Amazon as well as allow us to
develop our own website and open new opportunities across numerous
e-commerce channels."

   Ace Electronics UK joins some of the UK's largest and most
successful online marketplace sellers who manage their selling
activity via ChannelAdvisor including eBay.co.uk's Auction Seller of
the Year, Schuh.

   Dan Lumb, Internet Commerce Manager for Schuh, said:
"ChannelAdvisor's technology has helped Schuh build its online
marketplace and auction business at an incredible pace. It's helped
automate and streamline a great deal of our selling activity across
these channels and has undoubtedly been a vital component in Schuh's
online marketplace success."

   James Scott, Managing Director of ChannelAdvisor UK, said: "We are
very proud of the fact that such high profile, award winning companies
place so much trust and value in ChannelAdvisor's technology and
expertise to help them achieve and exceed their online sales goals.

   "We thoroughly enjoy working with companies like Schuh, whose
energy and passion for e-commerce is both boundless and infectious.

   "Ace Electronics UK has already achieved a great deal in a
relatively short period of time and their recognition as a "Rising
Star" on eBay is well deserved. We look forward to working with them
to build on this considerable early success."
