  1. Business-to-business (B2B), it comes from its name, where businesses showcase their products and allow shopping of another businesses through that e-commerce platform.

  2. Business-to-consumer (B2C), it’s a platform built by business to showcase their products/services and allow their final consumers to shop through it.

  3. Consumer-to-consumer (C2C), in this case it’s a little bit different; because here a business or a third part build the e-commerce platform allowing consumers to showcase their products for other consumers who might want to buy it, allowing the selling/buying process through the platform.
