Company profile
researched Aug 2026ZAX operates an online wholesale marketplace, distributed primarily through a mobile app, that lets resellers in Brazil buy apparel and accessories directly from manufacturers and wholesalers. The platform aggregates more than 1,000 suppliers concentrated in São Paulo's traditional wholesale garment districts, including Brás and Bom Retiro, and presents their catalogs with both wholesale and suggested retail prices so buyers can assess resale margins.
The assortment spans women's and men's clothing (blouses, shirts, dresses, jeans, plus-size trousers, cropped tops, bodysuits), underwear and socks, beachwear and dry-fit T-shirt kits, and leather and synthetic accessories such as handbags, backpacks, belts, wallets and laptop cases. Individual listings are attributed to named supplier storefronts, and a portion of items carry a "Mesmo Preço do Brás" (same price as Brás) label, indicating parity with in-person district pricing. The catalog is organized into sections such as trending items, featured stores, new arrivals and personalized recommendations, and spans roughly 30 pages of paginated listings.
Business model
ZAX runs a B2B marketplace intermediating between wholesale fashion suppliers and reselling retailers, hosting supplier storefronts and product listings, handling ordering through its app and website, and offering buyer-facing payment and shipping terms.
