Facebook has begun rolling out its Marketplace feature to seventeen countries in Europe. Countries including France, Germany, Spain and Switzerland now have the feature available to users. Previously, the feature had only been available in the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and Chile. Facebook Marketplace allows users to “discover, buy and sell goods in their local communities”. In May, over 18 million new items were put up for sale in Marketplace in the US, with that number continuing to grow.
