BBB is a young and vibrant forum of business to provide its members with opportunities to network and develop their enterprises. It aims to bring people of diverse business backgrounds together, to help better their reach and provide a platform to discuss ideas and improve their businesses.

Recently the forum has built a digital e-commerce platform to sell and market products/ services of our members. It is intended to connect to customers from outside our forum, potentially reaching out to customers globally.

We predict that an e-commerce portal will be necessary for our forum. Recent estimation reports on the net growth in value of e-markets support this necessity. Broadly, the portal will provide:

-   Connectivity of customers directly with our business community at large,

-        Exclusivity: only our members can sell through the portal,

-        Access to bigger market: members can sell products across markets and across chapters,

-        Coordination between member groups to support each other and develop their businesses collaboratively,

-        Data to help members with planning their sales.

Technically, it will feature a dedicated vendor portal, product and order management tools, product filter and compare, multi-level category system, product search with suggestion and seller messaging system. Individual members will be able to create their own product page that will appear as if members have their own website. The portal will continually be developed and improved upon to fulfill the broad provisions listed above.

With the introduction of e-portal, BBB will now have wings to soar into the upcoming era of businesses of a different kind – those that deliver to the needs of the global community.
