BuildStore Connections For Merchant Partners

As a BuildStore Connections merchant partner you will enjoy access to thousands of self-builders and renovators who are genuinely interested in, and ready to buy, the products or services you offer.

Simply by subscribing, you can become a merchant of choice for consumers in your area, many of whom will have identified the products they require at our Visitor Centre in Swindon, or will have sought advice on how to choose and where to get the products they need. As TradeCard consumers, they'll be primed and ready to buy from BuildStore Connections merchant partners. In turn, increased sales - and better supplier links - will allow you to stock a wider range and breadth of products.

For merchants, BuildStore Connections is not only about securing increased walk-in trade. Territorial online links to TradeLink - effectively the BuildStore Connections consumer register - means you can identify self-build customers in your area, and discover what stage they're at with their build. In short, you will know what materials they need as soon as they do - creating fantastic opportunities for tailored and direct sales promotion and customer relationship management.

• Access to targeted order-ready customers in your area
• Increased customer footfall generally
• Better links with BuildStore Connections suppliers
