Ecommerce solutions for Builder's Merchants

Helping builder's merchants who want to further their digital footprint & grow online.


As a builder's merchant your digital footprint is becoming more significant as the trade evolves and younger tradespeople move online to place orders, request quotes for jobs, and manage their trade accounts.
  • ERP Integrations

    2-way integration with leading industry-specific ERPs.

  • DIY (B2C) & Trade (B2B) Customers

    tradeit can cater for both audiences and tailor what the customer sees accordingly. Allow trade users to self-serve online by seeing credit limits, view/pay invoices, see their unique pricing and much more.

  • Branch-Specific Content

    tradeit can adjust site content like pricing, stock availability, product set, offers, and more based on a user’s location or proximity to branch, meaning they see everything related to their nearest branch rather than a global view.

  • Complex Building Materials

    Capability to sell complex products like timber (including calculating tally), bricks, block paving and artificial grass online. Products can display area coverage, alongside individual units, to customers for a superior and more intuitive UX.

  • Click & Collect / Reserve

    Offer same day Click & Collect and/or Click & Reserve at any of your branches, or route stock from a central location to branches for collection.

  • Branch Stock Checker

    Show customers 'live' stock levels online of every product at every branch. Buffer levels for each can be controlled in the admin system to provide some allowance for sudden in-branch purchases, more popular items, or busier branches.

  • Split Baskets

    Customers can split baskets with different delivery types, for example they can choose to collect one item from branch but get the other items sent to their chosen delivery address etc...

  • Quote Builder

    Customers can build quotes online, they can then add additional costs like labour & taxes then send to their client to accept or reject.

  • Quick Re-Ordering Tools

    Saved Baskets, quick order pad and regularly ordered items meaning re-ordering is quick and easy.

Match your delivery options to customer expectation and outperform your competitors with increased fulfilment options & flexibility.





Multi-address Delivery

Allow customers to split orders to multiple delivery addresses meaning they can send materials to multiple sites from a single online order saving huge amounts of time on admin. Can also split items by availability (ship those in stock now and those on back order when available) or fulfilment type.

Fulfilment types

Offer customers a vast range of delivery options such as same day, next day, or 2-3 day, alongside Click & Collect/Reserve. By combining fulfilment types on an order you can even drop ship products direct from your suppliers.

Local Delivery

Route online orders to the nearest trade counter and fulfil them from branch stock. Delivery areas can be assigned to a branch and different costs associated with each relevant delivery type. Stock can even be moved between branches to fulfil orders if required.
