Abstract	This paper explores issues of electronic commerce as a key enabler to promote trade between buyers and sellers. The broker is processed to match buyers and sellers, which is significant in prompting the transactions between the two sides. This paper proposes an agent-based framework for matching buyers and sellers and uses the multi-objective optimization model to match sellers and buyers. The framework is processed in three layers: the interface layer, the matching layer and the database layer. The interface layer consists of buyer agents, seller agents and a broker agent. The matching layer is mainly to find the appropriate sellers to buyers. Based on the framework, a prototype system has been designed to illustrate the effectiveness of the approach.
