This isn’t just an upgrade; it’s a complete rebuild. With a significant investment of over £250,000, we’ve redesigned our website from the ground up to rival the best e-commerce platforms. This overhaul not only enhances our digital offering but also secures the future of our business while showcasing our commitment to Stax members, suppliers, and hardworking branch teams.

What’s New?

The new website will deliver a streamlined, smarter, and more intuitive wholesale shopping experience. It introduces cutting-edge features to save time and improve usability, including:

  • AI-Driven Search: Lightning-fast results that predict what members are searching for based on their previous queries.
  • Mobile Scan-Powered Reordering: Retailers can reorder stock effortlessly using their mobile devices.
  • Dynamic Product Pages: Pack pricing is highlighted to ensure members always see the best price first, alongside editable and reusable shopping lists.
  • Flexible Account Management: Members can now set up multiple user accounts with different permissions, ideal for larger businesses.
  • Accessibility: The platform has been designed to be fully inclusive, ensuring all users can navigate and shop with ease.
  • Enhanced Security and Stability: Built with a robust foundation to support future growth and evolving needs.
Why It Matters

Our new website sets a higher standard for wholesale, giving our members the tools they need to manage their business more efficiently. Whether shopping online or in-branch, this development reflects our ongoing commitment to providing a better, more reliable service.

The Launch Campaign: Stax. Better.

To celebrate this milestone, we’re kicking off a campaign under the tagline ‘Stax. Better.’ Over the next few months, we’ll highlight the improved features, demonstrate how simple it is for members to browse and order stock, and encourage everyone to log in and explore the new platform.

The Future of Wholesale

This development is about more than just a website - it’s about staying ahead of the curve and raising industry standards. With this significant investment and the ongoing support of our members and teams, we’re confident that Stax will continue to lead the way in wholesale.
