A B2B Marketplace Connecting Sustainable Buyers and Sellers from Across the Globe
Challenge
Ambio-N is a newly launched modern B2B Marketplace that connects the supplier and buyers of sustainably procured material.
Their main aim is to accelerate the global circular economy by connecting businesses with resources that transform and improve sustainability across the supply chain.
The client was already working with a third-party vendor to build their platform using nopCommerce but somehow, they were not able to achieve the customization they were looking for.
The client wanted to have some gated content based on the access(GuestUser, FreeUser, and PaidUser), they wanted to tag the products and wanted to create a utility to connect specific certificates to specific suppliers.
So, they approached TMotions with predefined and complex requirements that were not achieved by their previous vendor.
When TMotions verified the code, TMotions realized that their previous vendor had not done any customization and it was only default nopCommerce.
What TMotions did?
The client opted nopCommerce as a choice of platform for this project due to its rich built-in functionality, multi-vendor, promotions, featured list, and other sales and marketing tools & because of its completeness and extensibility.
The client’s main requirement was to build a B2B marketplace for sustainable products with certifications.
TMotions started by creating a custom design from scratch as per the client’s requirement for a smooth and intuitive user experience followed by implementing the complex features. TMotions tried to match the designs requested by the client.
TMotions worked on the end to end Product Taxonomy for the client and uploaded 1000s of the products with the automated processes that nop provides.
The platform offers gated content based on access. The Guest user can only view the items and cannot purchase, while the free member can view and purchase but can’t access the supplier and certificate directory. Paid member on the other hand will have full access to the system.
Creating the utility to connect the Supplier & the certification directory was the most important requirement
This platform maintains a suppliers & certification directory. Each supplier can select the certificates from the certification listing, which is a vital & reliability factor. Both the suppliers & certification directories are interconnected & users can check the details of suppliers likes ESGindent, Circular indent which showcases its reusability & how the fabric which they are selling is impacting the environment.
The other feature TMotions built is assigning badges to each product, which tells whether it’s reusable & environment friendly or not.
To get access to the directory to see the list of suppliers listed in the marketplace & their certifications both Suppliers & buyers must buy an annual plan.
