Trade pricing and branch stock decisions in builders merchants
Builders merchants operate at the intersection of trade expertise and commercial pressure. Branch managers make hundreds of decisions daily about stock, pricing, and customer service. Head office sets strategy but the real decisions happen locally, informed by relationships and experience that are hard to codify.
We help builders merchants and building supplies businesses preserve and scale that practical knowledge. AI that supports counter staff, branch managers, and commercial teams with the right information at the right moment.

Local stocking decisions are often based on habit rather than data, leading to overstock or missed sales.
