An exclusive alliance struck between TIMBERWeb and logistics and freight forwarding company Schenker AG means traders can now not only buy and sell timber and lumber online but also arrange to have it delivered anywhere in the world.
Keith Richmond, chairman and chief executive officer of TIMBERWeb plc, said:
‘This formidable partnership sends a very powerful message to online timber/lumber traders.
‘It reinforces our reliable Request for Quote based platform and gives traders the reassurance that logistics for contracts made via the eTrader can be arranged simply and quickly.
‘Having completed their deal, traders will be only one click of a mouse button from logistics support.’
Full logistics packages will be offered to traders via TIMBERWeb’s Ariba Dynamic Trade eTrader platform.
