Boots has announced a partnership with RangeMe.
Boots said it hopes the partnership with the product discovery and sourcing platform, which has over 200,000 registered suppliers, will strengthen its commitment to working with a broad range of suppliers and to support a fair and equal chance for companies to compete for opportunities.
Buyers using RangeMe can filter searches to find brands and products, connect with suppliers, and access curated collections to help identify and understand category trends and emerging brands.
“Our partnership with RangeMe will create a direct route for interesting and innovative brands to reach and pitch to our buying team, that cater to our diverse customer base and local communities,” said Steve Ager, chief customer and category officer at Boots.
He continued: “We introduced hundreds of new product brands last year, and we’ve seen many interesting start-ups launch post-pandemic. We’re looking forward to being able to support these businesses in their success by offering a new way for our buyers to discover them.”
