EazyStock’s win at the BMF: A testament to our commitment to merchants

We’re thrilled to announce that EazyStock has been honoured with the BMF Service Member Engagement Award 2024! This achievement reflects our deep involvement in the Builders Merchants Federation (BMF) and our dedication to driving meaningful change across the building materials sector. Competing alongside some of the industry’s heavyweights like Intact and Kerridge, this award proves our commitment to merchants, suppliers, and partners alike. 

However, this isn’t just a win for EazyStock—it’s a result of our meaningful engagement across the industry and the partnerships we’ve built along the way. 

Celebrating our merchant users 

We’re proud to serve several merchant customers, including GPH Builders Merchants, Peppard Building Supplies, and Lawsons Ltd. Their feedback and experiences have been invaluable in shaping our approach and understanding the industry’s needs. The successes they’ve achieved with EazyStock continue to inspire us and highlight the real-world impact of effective inventory management.  

What this win means for merchants 

This award is more than just a trophy—it’s a symbol of the partnerships we’ve nurtured and the trust we’ve built within the BMF. We’ve always believed that collaboration is the key to success, and this recognition reinforces our mission to support merchants by helping them optimise their stock, free up cash, and ultimately grow their businesses. To explore how merchants are benefiting from EazyStock, check out our customer case studies for more insights.

Engaging with the BMF 

At EazyStock, our mission has always been to help merchants work smarter. By focusing on reducing stock levels and improving operational efficiency, we strive to create lasting impact within the industry. Our commitment to these goals has driven our active engagement with the BMF and its members, ensuring that we provide the solutions that matter most to our partners. 

Over the past year, we’ve actively participated in various BMF events, forging connections and sharing our expertise with key decision-makers. Here are three standout moments from our journey: 

Presenting at forums: We’ve had the privilege of presenting at key forums, including the Bathroom Forum, where we co-presented with Tom Reynolds from the Bathroom Manufacturers Association (BMA), and the Tools and Fixings Forum, where we were joined by Paul Gordon, Managing Director of Olympic Fixings. These events provide an excellent opportunity to highlight the benefits of inventory optimisation, particularly for customers like Olympic Fixings, Draper Tools, and Forgefix. We showcased how EazyStock empowers businesses in these industries to reduce stock levels, improve efficiency, and achieve sustainable growth. 

BMF All-Industry Conference: Attending the BMF’s All-Industry Conference gave us the chance to connect with merchants and suppliers from across the UK and Ireland. We shared best practices in smarter inventory management, demonstrating how EazyStock can reduce overstocking and improve profitability. Our involvement continues to strengthen relationships across the sector. While there, we even took the opportunity to interview key members and the man, the myth, the legend—BMF CEO, John Newcomb—on the importance of good inventory management. His insights underscored the critical role of smart stock control in helping merchants stay competitive and agile. 

Exhibiting at the BMF Annual Conference and Awards: This event, where we were honoured with the Service Member Engagement Award, capped off a year of hard work and collaboration. Exhibiting allowed us to engage with merchants and suppliers, providing insights into how our solution supports effective stock management across the sector.

What’s next? 

Winning this award is a great milestone, but we’re not stopping here; we’re just getting started. With this recognition and our proven solutions, we’re ready to help even more merchants take control of their inventory and unlock growth.
