eBay, the global eCommerce company, has appointed Israeli Alon Paster as its new Head of Commercial Development for Global Emerging Markets. In his role, he will head the company’s commercial development in global emerging markets covering 160 countries including Israel, Russia, South and Central America, Eastern Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.

"I am thrilled with the opportunity of joining eBay in these unique and challenging times, following the significant and unprecedented growth that the eCommerce world has experienced recently,” Paster said. “With over 187 million buyers on the eBay platform and some 20 million sellers, eBay enables businesses of all sizes to continue and thrive even in times of global instability. I enter this position with the aim of further advancing this growth across eBay’s emerging markets, including the Israeli market which has just seen an addition of over 16,000 new sellers joining the platform during the first COVID-19 year alone."
