Key Supplier to Aerospace Industry Has 75 Percent Revenue Increase in 2019

Feb. 3, 2020

Zoro offers a one-stop-shop for over 300,000 products in industrial consumables and equipment with free next day delivery throughout the GB mainland on many of its lines. The company has announced that it has increased its revenue by more than 75 percent during 2019, delivering more than 360,000 items during last year.

From launching its trade accounts in summer 2018 to the engineering industry, Zoro has rapidly increased its business customer base.

Marcus Nelson, managing director of Zoro UK, said: “If you are an engineer or are working in an industrial SME and need that critical tool the next day, then Zoro will deliver it to you. And it’s not just tools – we have over 300,000 products, from stationery to beverages, that the small engineering company needs.

“We are really excited to be able to offer such a wide product range to the aerospace supply chain. So, try us out – you won’t find anyone more competitive on pricing, delivery or expert knowledge.”

Almost 50 percent of Zoro’s customers are now businesses, rather than sole traders, and the company is using digital innovation to save companies time and money.

During 2019, Zoro launched an automatic replenishment service for the engineering industry. This feature reduces the amount of time spent manually reordering products, minimizing human error, which ensures smooth production.

When purchasing through Zoro’s Order Subscription service, customers can decide how frequently they would like to receive products by selecting a monthly, weekly or bi-weekly option. Customers can also set a start and end date for their subscription, or schedule a single order on a specific date of their choice.

Chris Matenaers, marketing director at Zoro said: “Many businesses reorder the same supplies on a regular basis. Order Subscription ensures much-needed items will be delivered when the business needs them without having to remember to place the order. This means no delays in production due to downtime.

“We pride ourselves on bringing new innovative functionalities to the B2B market and our new Order Subscription service will enhance our customer’s experience and makes conducting business with Zoro seamless.”
