Yappli, introduced by AS ONE, the No. 1 specialized trading company in research instruments for physical and chemical sciences in Japan ~Streamlined BtoB purchasing process with business support app for distributors~
Yappli, Inc., (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan, Representative Director and CEO: Yasubumi Ihara, hereinafter “Yappli, Inc.”) a company providing a no-code app development and management platform, Yappli announced on Thursday, November 25, 2021 that Yappli was selected by AS ONE CORPORATION (Headquarters: Osaka, Japan, President and Representative Director: Takuji Iuchi, hereinafter ‘‘AS ONE’’), a specialized trading company in research instruments for physical and chemical sciences.
■From Product Catalog to E-Commerce, and to the App
AS ONE, a trading company distributing scientific instruments, is a pioneer in BtoB catalog shopping, having started catalog sales for researchers in 1963. In 2015, the company established a product database called “AXEL” on the Internet, which had no limit on the number of items that could be listed, unlike paper catalogs, creating a system to "visualize" inventory. The introduction of E-commerce has increased customer convenience and has gained widespread support from the clientele looking for specialized products.
AS ONE, always thinking of its business model in terms of "customers first" and trying new things, its next step was to focus on mobile apps. Mobile apps that allow users to be connected more easily than laptops at any time, are becoming more effective in BtoB (Business to Business: commercial transactions between companies) business.
AS ONE has employed app platform Yappli to release the "AS ONE Official App" (*1), a business support app for distributors.
(*1) This app is only for distributors who have a direct business relationship with AS ONE. To use this service, ai-com web account (sales support network for distributors) is required. The app was released on April 1st, 2021.
◼️‘‘AS ONE Official app,’’ a business support app for distributors
This is the official app of AS ONE CORPORATION, a specialized trading company in scientific instruments, industrial equipment, and hospital and nursing care products. Customers can quickly check campaigns and recommended products on their smartphones, and receive the most suitable information by selecting the content of interest in advance. You can also search for products on AXEL with JAN code by using the barcode scanner. The product details can also be accessed just by clicking on the latest digital catalog. The "ai-com web" (*2) system, which includes functions such as quotation request, inventory check, and order placement, is linked to digital catalogs and AXEL on the app, enabling seamless user experience with single sign-on.
(*2) ai-com web: A network system that delivers speedy and reliable information on purchase, inventory, shipping, and sale of each product, essential for transactions with business partners. This system is used by many as an online system to support sales and business transactions with valued customers and manufacturers.
Comment from AS ONE
With the rise of remote work amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, we have released a smartphone app that allows our distributors to easily place orders and obtain inventory information wherever they are. It features a single sign-on where you only need to log in once at the very first time to seamlessly access various tools. In the future, we hope to evolve the app into a two-way communication tool, allowing distributors and our sales staff to chat within the app.
