Industrial products are not consumer goods. The buying and selling parties of industrial products are business-to-business relationships between upstream and downstream products. The retail model is not applicable. Industrial products belong to upstream and downstream industrial supply chain products. Industrial products have industry-specific online platforms. The current online trading platforms for industrial products include Huicong and Alibaba Industrial Products. There is also a trading platform in the form of futures: Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange.

If you want to do industrial product e-commerce, you must first sort out the upstream and downstream supply chain relationships of industrial products, specific professional teams and service capabilities, and build a big data smart trading platform. Connect the upstream and downstream supply chain companies of industrial products, open up the transmission of industrial products and supply and demand information, and connect the industrial product information of supply chain companies to downstream companies. Access the production management system of downstream companies, transmit production supply and demand data in real time, let companies decide on procurement needs, and complete industrial product procurement transactions.

The future of industrial product e-commerce is to upgrade and transform the traditional procurement model of upstream and downstream supply chain companies of industrial products into data, and integrate the supply relationship into the real-time production system. This is also the new direction of the future industrial Internet, building an industrial product transaction supply chain system + intelligent manufacturing industry 4.0.
