B2B Marketplaces

B2B (Business-to-Business) marketplaces are online platforms where companies can buy and sell products or services directly to other businesses. Similar to how Amazon connects individual consumers with sellers, B2B marketplaces facilitate transactions between businesses, often in large quantities, streamlining sourcing, discounts, and negotiations. They help companies find suppliers, manage orders, and expand their reach efficiently. Examples include Alibaba and ThomasNet, which serve as digital hubs for wholesale trade. These platforms reduce the time and effort needed for businesses to connect, making complex B2B transactions more accessible and organized.
