Online bidding available to green industry
Bidding on plant material is the next wave in evolution for online auctions and searches for the green industry.
e-Greenbiz.com, a neutral e-commerce web site serving the needs of the green industry recently announced the introduction of its 'request for bid' system to its site. Users search by botanical or common name, complete and submit a single RFB form. The system then searches its internal database and sends a RFB to all growers of the green good. The buyer is then notified as bids are received and given the opportunity to choose a purchase source. Since March 2000, e-Greenbiz.com has added almost 2,000 registered users.
e-Greenbiz.com is a wholesale electronic marketplace that matches buyers and sellers in the green industry. Included on the site is an online auction, hard- and green-good catalogue, and now a request for bid system. For more information, contact e-Greenbiz.com at 1-877-485-7100 or visit www.e-greenbiz.com.
