The Problem for Stores
Many local hardware, plumbing, and electrical stores struggle with visibility. Their biggest challenges include:
- Limited online presence
- No dedicated platform to promote products or connect with buyers
- Difficulty attracting large clients like contractors and builders
The Problem for Builders and Contractors
On the other side, builders and contractors often spend hours searching for reliable suppliers across cities. Their pain points include:
- No central directory for comparing stores or services
- Uncertainty about availability and pricing
- Lack of verified reviews or digital contacts
