TradePower partners with DH Supply

TradePower adds new distributor in the Atlanta metropolitan area to its electronic construction marketplace.

TradePower (Linthicum Heights, MD) has partnered with DH Supply Company (Atlanta, GA). Under the agreement, DH Supply will link its business system to TradePower's digital marketplace. This gives TradePower customers immediate access to DH Supply's extensive catalog of electrical products as well as access to its branch locations in Atlanta, Ga. TradePower will expand its marketplace by linking to DH Supply's five branch locations. In return, DH Supply will broaden its sales channel by gaining access to TradePower's growing network of marketplace customers.

TradePower's Digital Marketplace
The TradePower digital marketplace enables real-time transactions between suppliers and contractors, empowering users to research, request and purchase construction materials through their medium of choice - the desktop or the Web. Unlike existing construction industry exchanges that target owners, architects and general contractors, TradePower is focused on the supplier and contractor relationship, where the majority of construction industry transactions occur.

TradePower's marketplace connects contractors and suppliers through a
neutral, centralized and integrated environment that enhances information exchange and simplifies the purchase and sale of construction supplies. The exchange gives contractors the ability to improve business operations by reducing overhead costs and minimizing fulfillment errors. Suppliers benefit from the TradePower digital marketplace by expanding their sales channels and improving the efficiencies of their supply chains.
