E-Commerce Website Launch Rethinks MEA Machinery Rental and Sale

Nov 7, 2023 | Business

 UAE-based company Al Marwan Heavy Machinery has taken this digital shift head-on with their recent launch of an e-commerce platform that stands as a one-stop-shop for all heavy construction equipment rental and sale needs.

The launch of the new Al Marwan website is an exciting development for the heavy equipment retail sector in the UAE. By going digital, the company expands its area of operations to cover the middle east and africa region.

Upon speaking with Abdalla Al Zaiem, Director of Commercial and Business Development at Al Marwan, about the launch of almarwan.com and the future of heavy equipment industry in the UAE and the MEA Region, Al Zaiem marked that: “The launch of the new website is a very important milestone for our company. It marks our strong presence in the industry and our commitment to providing world-class products and services to our customers. We are confident that the website will quickly become one of the leading heavy equipment service providers in the UAE and the region.”

The Future of Heavy Equipment Rental and Sale
As the construction industry continues to grow, so does the demand for heavy equipment. With the launch of the new website, a wholly innovative, digital solution for the heavy equipment industry, construction professionals now have access to an even wider range of tools and machinery.

almarwan.com is the first online e-commerce platform to offer a complete range of heavy equipment for both purchase and rental in the Middle East. This sets Al Marwan apart from the competition, with their focus on user experience and convenient customer journey. Because they understand that construction projects can be complex and challenging, their teams are always available to provide expert advice and assistance.

Why are Middle East Countries Prime for this Kind of Store?
There are many reasons why the Middle East is a great market for launching a new heavy equipment retail store. For one, the region is home to some of the world’s largest construction projects, such as NEOM in Saudi Arabia, and Etihad Rail in the UAE and Oman, among many others. This means that there is a constant demand for new and used heavy equipment.

The Launch of almarwan.com
With the rise of e-commerce and the ever-changing needs of consumers, brick-and-mortar stores are being forced to adapt or face extinction. The same can be said for heavy equipment suppliers. In order to stay ahead of the curve, Al Marwan Heavy Machinery has decided to launch an online store. This move will allow them to reach a wider audience and tap into new markets.

With the launch of Al Marwan’s new website, customers will be able to browse and purchase or rent heavy equipment with but a few taps. This convenience is sure to appeal to busy professionals and those who don’t have easy access to a physical store. In addition, Al Marwan will offer seamless delivery and shipping options, and flexible financing methods that meet the needs of different businesses.

About Al Marwan Heavy Machinery
Part of Al Marwan Group- since 1978, Al Marwan established itself as a trusted source for customers looking to rent or buy heavy equipment in the GCC market. Following the launch, Al Marwan has become one of the leading heavy equipment suppliers in the Middle East, providing sales, service, and rental solutions for construction companies, contractors, and commercial customers.

E-commerce Strategy: Why Nearly All Businesses Should Have One Says the CEO of Market America

Aug 23, 2022 | Business

The Founder, Chairman & CEO of Market America Worldwide | SHOP.COM, JR Ridinger, has some strong words about e-commerce strategy and why nearly all businesses should have one. He believes that if a company’s leadership is not thinking about how to incorporate e-commerce into their business model, they are behind the times. “E-commerce is no longer an up-and-coming trend — it’s here to stay,” says Ridinger. “And if companies want to stay relevant and competitive, how to sell online needs to be part of their strategy.”

Ridinger is not alone in this belief. Many experts agree that e-commerce is quickly becoming the new norm for businesses of all sizes across all industries. In fact, research shows that global e-commerce sales are expected to reach $4.5 trillion by 2023. So, what exactly is an e-commerce strategy? And why do nearly all businesses need one? An e-commerce strategy is simply a plan for how a business will sell products or services online.

The key is to have a well-thought-out plan that considers any unique business goals and objectives. Without a clear e-commerce strategy, it’s all too easy to get lost in the sea of online options and miss out on important opportunities to grow your business. There are many advantages to selling online, including reaching a wider audience, increasing sales and improving customer service. Perhaps most importantly, an e-commerce strategy can help a company stay ahead of the competition. “If you’re not selling online, you’re missing out on a huge opportunity,” says Ridinger. “E-commerce is the future of business, and those who don’t embrace it will be left behind.”

Anyone ready to take a business to the next level must consider that it is time to develop a comprehensive e-commerce strategy. Market America can help. As a leading digital marketing company, it has the experience and expertise to help build a successful online store or marketplace. Market America will work with individuals to understand their unique needs and goals and create a custom plan to help them reach their target audience. Market America can also provide the tools and resources needed to get started, including a custom website, shopping cart and payment gateway.

E-commerce marketing does the following:

  • Drives traffic to an e-commerce website
  • Puts the company in front of its target audience
  • Makes it easy for people looking for the kind of products a company sells to discover its website
  • Converts website visitors into new customers
  • Reengages people who’ve visited a website before to encourage them to buy again
  • Enhances the post-purchase experience to increase customer satisfaction and drive loyalty
  • Reactivates current customers with well-timed, relevant offers and information, so they enjoy shopping from a specific vendor
  • Stimulates more regular and bigger orders

Without e-commerce marketing, a company wouldn’t make any sales. Launching an e-commerce site is not enough — people need to discover it before they spend money. More than this, a company or entrepreneur needs to constantly remind them of its brand so that they come back again and again, generating revenue.

 

Fake reviews on E-Commerce platforms under Centre’s radar

May 26, 2022 | Business


To gauge the magnitude of fake reviews on E-Commerce platforms which mislead consumers into buying online services or products and to prepare a roadmap ahead, the Department of Consumer Affairs (DoCA) in association with the Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI) will be holding a virtual meeting on Friday, 27th May, 2022 along with various stakeholders.


The discussions will be broadly based on the impact of fake and misleading reviews on consumers and possible measures to prevent such anomaly. In this regard, Secretary DoCA, Shri Rohit Kumar Singh has written to all stakeholders: E-Commerce entities like Flipkart, Amazon, Tata Sons, Reliance Retail and others besides, Consumer Forums, Law Universities, Lawyers, FICCI, CII, Consumer Rights Activists etc. to participate in the meeting.


Along with the letter, Shri Singh has also shared a Press Release of European Commission dated January 20th, 2022 highlighting results of an EU-wide screening on online consumer reviews across 223 major websites. The screening results underlines that at least 55% of the websites violate the unfair commercial Practices Directive of the E.U. which requires truthful information to be presented to consumers to make an informed choice. Further, in 144 out of the 223 websites checked, the authorities could not confirm that traders were doing enough to ensure that reviews were authentic, i.e., if they were posted by consumers who had actually used the product or service that was reviewed.


The letter states that ‘It is relevant to mention that with growing internet and smartphone use, consumers are increasingly shopping online to purchase goods and services.  Given that e-commerce involves a virtual shopping experience without any opportunity to physically view or examine the product, consumers heavily rely on reviews posted on e-commerce platforms to see the opinion and experience of user who have already purchased the goods or service. As a result, due to fake and misleading reviews, the right to be informed, which is a consumer right under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 is violated.’


‘Since the issue impacts people shopping online on a daily basis and has a significant impact on their rights as a consumer, it is important that it is examined with greater scrutiny and detail,’ the letter states.
