Online marketplace offers chemical buyers enhanced point-click-and-buy capabilities, faster delivery speeds and significant savings
GREEN BAY, Wis.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#B2B—ChemDirect, an online B2B marketplace for on-demand, direct ship chemicals from vetted suppliers, today announced the launch of its 2.0 website. ChemDirect brings the chemical buying process online, helping users avoid the long, complex sales cycles and delivery times commonly experienced with traditional sourcing.
The newly redesigned website makes it easier for companies to transparently shop, compare and purchase hundreds of thousands of chemicals sold directly from manufacturers in just a few clicks. By purchasing directly from ChemDirect manufacturers, U.S.-based buyers experience an average fulfillment time of 3½ days and up to 80% in cost savings. ChemDirect offers B2B functionality with a B2C experience that’s easy for technical and non-technical users to navigate, empowering companies of all sizes to streamline their procurement process from research to purchasing decision.
“Traditional chemical procurement was long overdue for reinvention, and ChemDirect is committed to driving this change,” said Tyler Ellison, ChemDirect’s founder and CEO. “Our new website offers buyers one-stop shopping with transparent access to hundreds of thousands of chemicals shipped directly from vetted manufacturers, enabling faster delivery speeds and significant savings. On the sell-side, we’re providing a digital sales and marketing solution with real-time market analytics, allowing suppliers to boost sales, expand markets and build their brand presence.”
ChemDirect 2.0 features a variety of enhancements impacting three key areas of e-commerce — the purchasing experience, account management and supplier storefronts.
