Materials Market

• Industry Wholesale Building Materials
• Website https://materialsmarket.com/

Materials Market first took shape after founders Samuel and Andrew grew frustrated with the daily struggle of contacting supplier after supplier looking for the best price and lead time for building materials. Knowing there had to be a better way, Samuel had a eureka moment and proposed that an innovative online platform, where suppliers made transparent offers on customer enquiries, would solve this major issue with procurement in the construction industry.

Materials Market seeks to improve efficiency by connecting customers with the most appropriate supplier to fulfil their needs. It offers a great opportunity for both parties to trade online in a secure marketplace, where changes in price and availability are reflected in real time and both customers and suppliers have complete control over their use of the service.

Thanks to the hard work of the founders and the excellent, long-suffering team at Purr Digital - whose contribution to the functionality, look and feel of the website has been immeasurable - the Materials Market software is simple yet effective, with a strong focus on providing a seamless user experience.

In September 2020, Gavin Leverett joined Samuel and Andrew on the board of directors. Bringing with him over 20 years' experience in director-level finance roles, Gavin shares the founders' vision of a more efficient marketplace for building materials. Having worked at the top level in both contracting (Horbury Group) and distribution (Meyer Timber), Gavin understands both sides of the industry and is perfectly placed to work with the founders to push Materials Market forward.

Launched in October 2020, Materials Market is pioneering its new approach to improve the buying and selling experiences for customers and suppliers all over the UK. Get in touch today to see how we can help.
