Acquisition International - March 2017 23 London Calling • Clients’ database; • Emailing system etc.; • Our vans working under track online and mobile control and; • All branches have installed CCTV online systems. IBB Merchant – our aim is to be the first builders merchant in the world selling materials without the margin! (in reality- very small margin) – diversification of incomes will allow for that. Our customers subscribe to our PRO version IBBestimator app – we are giving them the best building material prices on the market. The deal continues for 2 years now. More and more customers understand the idea which benefits both of us. Challenges facing the industry The last challenge not only for us but also for all UK citizens are changes affecting construction industry after Brexit. We believe that the costs of the decision to leave the EU will be paid by weak companies and last clients – ordinary citizens. We are doing what we can to keep tight material prices and do not increase them -what should be a duty for all UK businesses. We are keeping on our arms a heavy load of economy changes in UK after Brexit. Like in the song of Kelly Clarkson: What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger! For all of us, business people, our challenges are competitors. Thanks to them we are developing. I wish all the best to my competitors. I am growing with them! To keep this going the UK has to be free and open for others. Let’s be.
