Hi, I’m Peter Beke, Director here at The Hawkers Club.

A little bit about my background and how The Hawkers Club became the company that it is today.

In 2018, after my time at Amazon, I teamed up with Hannah Blackburn to create The Hawker's Club. We both felt that we could better serve sellers and vendors outside of the Amazon platform by focusing on their specific needs and challenges.

The focus of The Hawker’s club is to undertake the vendor or seller ecommerce journey along with our clients. With marketplaces such as Amazon, Wayfair and Walmart increasingly expecting vendors and sellers to take more and more traditionally retail side responsibilities such as customer service, operational and marketing load. Peter and Hannah therefore focus on helping businesses both adopting and thriving in this environment.

Whether you’ve seen record growth and need to expand your team quickly with our virtual team of admins and content writers, or if you want to look at your import operations or advertising with renewed focus, The Hawker’s Club can support your goals.
