  • In the recent times, majority of small and medium enterprises are entirely involved in business through B2B portals. This has reduced the unnecessary movement of people and commodities to numerous held trade fairs, thereby dropping the cost of marketing as well as less consumption of energy and fuel resources.

  • In this method of conducting trade, the entire process, except the delivery of products and services requires electronic intervention and transaction.
  • Physical presence in all stages of business is almost not required. Moreover in abstract services, even the delivery can be taken care of electronically.
  • Online B2B trade helps in garnering huge profits without the necessity of releasing any dangerous green house gases. Even cutting of trees which is extensively required in paper-based business processes, can be avoided.
