Case Study

Green Depot is a leading supplier of environmentally friendly and sustainable building products, services and home solutions. Founded in 2005, Green Depot's mission has been - from the outset - to make green building products and services readily accessible so that green building can be easily adopted into standard construction operations.

They contacted UniteU in mid-2008 as they were looking to expand their online presence to sell direct to consumers. Prior to that time their store locations and website had catered primarily to distributors. They had very specific requirements and performed a thorough search of ecommerce solution providers, looking for a long-term partner who would grow with them.

UniteU responded to their needs which included:

• Integration with NSB/Epicor
• Special shipping requirements in the basket
• Custom order details included in the confirming email
• High-end design
• User-friendly search and navigation
• Green icons on each product description
• Green tips by room section

Because of their goal to help establish sustainable building in a cost competitive way, and provide products of the highest quality that are certified green, Green Depot selected UniteU because it was an affordable ecommerce solution that was also feature-rich, flexible and scalable.
