chembid and VCI drive forward the digitalisation of the chemical business

20 April 2020

The market intelligence platform chembid and the German Chemical Industry Association (Verband der Chemischen Industrie) have entered into a partnership.

The co-operation uses synergies to add even more digital value for their members.

This is the first time a digital chemicals platform has been made an exclusive cooperation partner of the VCI.

Since 2017, chembid has been offering chemical companies and buyers of chemicals digital solutions that allow better and faster business decisions based on millions of market and product data.

The platform bundles chemical offers available on the Internet from global marketplaces and shops.

Millions of data are aggregated on the platform in real time, analysed and made comparable for the user in a simple and transparent way.

For companies in the chemical sector, chembid not only represents an additional digital sales channel but also provides industry-specific market and product insights.

The VCI, as one of the four largest industrial associations in Germany, represents the interests of around 1700 companies from the chemical and pharmaceutical sectors.

In addition to improving the economic and political framework conditions of the industry, the association offers its members selected cooperations that facilitate the day-to-day business of the companies.

In order to meet the needs of member companies in the age of digitalisation, a co-operation between chembid and the VCI was an obvious choice.

"We are very pleased to be taking another step towards the digitalisation of the chemical industry together with VCI.

"Today, digital visibility is just as important for companies in the chemical industry as data-based decision-making.

"As a market intelligence platform, we are able to combine both facets.

"Every day, chembid generates millions of market and product data, which are processed by intelligent algorithms and represent real added value for our users – also for VCI members," explains Christian Bürger, Managing Director of chembid.

VCI member companies can make their products visible in the chembid search engine for free and easily reach new customers on the Internet.

Furthermore, association companies can benefit from exclusive advantages of chembid premium services, such as PRO Supplier.

As a PRO Supplier, companies can stand out from the competition in a particularly eye-catching way and generate new customers on chembid.com.

PRO Suppliers also receive exclusive insights into market developments and analyses of market, product and supplier data, which they can use to expand their business.
