Agile Multiple Seller is a PrestaShop addon module that enables multiple sellers (vendors) to share a single PrestaShop store and shopping cart. It can turn your PrestaShop into a marketplace. The store (marketplace) owner controls all access to the PrestaShop store. Sellers/Vendors can list, sell and manage their products and orders.
