Key enhancements brought by the new Dropee are:
1. Targeted promotional campaigns: Unlike previously, suppliers now can launch promotional campaigns where they can choose to specify which customers that are eligible for additional discounts from the listed prices on Dropee.
2. Better streamline ordering process: With the new interface, the process of ordering can be done more efficiently where retailers can place new orders and to re-order directly without relying on a sales person from the supplier to help them.
3. Easier discovery of wholesale pricing goods (buyers): Different than the old interface, current Dropee allows retailers to discover products easier based on their categories of interests such as Convenience Stores, F&B Restaurants, and others which are curated by Dropee team for each category after making sure that the products listed are at wholesale prices.
