From the start of November, Confex members will have an online community in which to trade amongst themselves.
This platform will be facilitated by Head Office giving the 224 wholesalers the opportunity to sell to each other while at the same time driving group growth.
Speaking about the initiative, managing director, Tom Gittins, explains that the idea was driven by member feedback and he believes it offers a massive opportunity due to the diverse nature of the different members.
“We have members who specialise in certain categories and who will now be able to pass on their efficiencies and knowledge to other Confex members through an Industry-leading sales platform’,” he explains.
