Thanks for the insight

Local e-stores have the infrastructure, warehouses and logistics, plus they are on the market long enough to know it. So what about selling it there? Companies like Lenovo (which has its EU headquarters in Bratislava by the way), Asus, Apple and Google already sell their products through them. So why doesn't companies like Framework, Jolla and Fairphone sell on them? Because they're greedy and they think short-term or their CEOs don't know any better.
... What? This is such a nonsense explanation. I wonder what's different about these global corporations whose market cap is measured in hundreds of billions of dollars and these three relatively small companies – one of which I hadn't even heard of until now. Just what could it mean that an American laptop company with like 100 employees doesn't have a contract with some random Slovakian online reseller? Could it be that the former probably already have at least an entire legal team etc. specifically for Slovakia – a country with ~5 million people – or could it be that myopic, greedy Fairphone hates Slovakia and its money?
Also, Lenovo Group Limited is headquartered in Hong Kong.
