Travis Perkins launches industry first app

Building materials supplier Travis Perkins has launched an industry first app that will enhance the way customers can order stock and manage their trade accounts on the go

The app has been designed in conjunction with customers to help them save time and work smarter by enabling them to check and order stock at their personal trade prices in real time from their local branch 24/7.

Not only will this transform the way they can forward plan their materials ordering and purchasing at the time that is most convenient to them, but the new app will also enable Trade Professional customers to fully manage their accounts on the go.

At just the tap of a mobile button, they can check their credit accounts, pay balances and download their invoices, which means they will be able to wave goodbye to large amounts of paperwork.

Travis Perkins digital director John Godwin said: "The pandemic has put huge pressure on all of us in the industry to ensure safety and keep construction projects going, and we have worked tirelessly with our customers to digitise our engagement with them and reshape our business to suit the changing demands of our markets.”
