I was thinking of this myself, but I think there are a couple challanges.
To gain widespread adoption, you need trust. This is complicated when you have a large amount of vendors. How are people going to access it? Will they go through different sites? How are you going to handle payments? And what if you buy multiple products from different vendors at once? How do you deal with a vendor misbehaving? Do you deferate with them, what if others don't? What if a vendor spams or uses fall advertising?
I don't think a federated webshop with the current fediverse model works, but I think it's still possible with more organization.
There could be non-profit's or coop's that manages the single customer facing website, moderates the site, and other matters that need to be handled centrally. Similar to how there are people organizing real life markets that bring the stalls, advertise the event locally, etc.
The software behind the web store would be an open source project which receives funding through the aforementioned organizations.
