Flex IT Distribution Sustainable Alternative in Icecat Commerce Partner Network

Flex IT Distribution joins the partner network of Icecat Commerce. This purchasing network is growing further, after the recent addition of Integral Memory. Who is Flex IT? Flex IT has been a supplier for IT retailers in Europe for over 15 years. The supplier specializes in recycled alternatives to the latest equipment. This leads to significant cost benefits for end-users and a reduced carbon footprint.

Added value for Flex IT resellers

Resellers can now easily find the products of Flex IT in Iceportal, the purchase portal of Icecat Commerce. Furthermore, they can automate the purchase connection via Icecat Connect and Icecat Order. These purchase services are now also including product availability and personalized purchase prices for all Flex IT products. Consequently, Flex IT retailers can now offer refurbished alternatives to more expensive new products. In this way, they help their clients to meet their sustainability objectives.

How does it work? Retailers that use Iceportal can select Flex IT as a preferred supplier. Alternatively, they can find the distributor in the optional supplier list for the products it supplies. If a retailer chooses Flex IT as a preferred supplier, then the distributor is added to the list of connected suppliers. These preferences, streamline the ordering processes of a reseller. Further, system integration is easy because all data from the connected suppliers are provided in one single catalog export format.

Through plugins and end-to-end integrations, we make it still easier to integrate standardized data into your platform. There are such standard plugins available for Magento, Prestashop, and WooCommerce.

By connecting as many retailers and suppliers as possible to the partner network, we bring supply and demand together.

How to add rich product content?

Icecat Commerce has a close connection to Icecat to deliver standardized rich product content, i.e., the product data sheets that manufacturers are providing to help end-users in their decision process. Furthermore, rich content is useful for developing search filters and comparison tables. Our single catalog export format includes matching Icecat IDs. This makes it very easy to retrieve the matching Icecat datasheet from the Icecat database.

Benefits for Flex IT

Flex IT gets access to the resellers that are already part of the Icecat Commerce network. As Flex IT joins the Icecat Commerce partner network, retailers can now more easily find the distributor’s offers. This generates sales leads for Flex IT. Furthermore, the purchasing process is fully digitized. In short, Icecat Commerce takes care of the automated exchange of price and availability, orders, and order status messaging via Iceportal, Icecat Connect, and Icecat Order.
