The Verhelst integration in Bouwflow, from webshop to building site
With Bouwflow, Verhelst's products and current prices land straight in your calculations, purchase orders and stock. You build your basket in the Verhelst webshop, Bouwflow pulls it in, and you go on to calculate and order with the right article numbers and purchase prices. That way, nobody retypes prices or references by hand.
What is Verhelst?
Verhelst Bouwmaterialen, part of Groep Verhelst, is a Belgian building-materials wholesaler with eleven branches across Flanders, from Bruges and Roeselare to Oudenburg, Veurne, Mechelen and Deurne. The company describes itself as a multispecialist for the building trade.
Its range covers timber, tiles, insulation, plasterboard, roofing and facade materials, interior doors, screeds, natural stone and tools. Verhelst serves both professional contractors and private builders, with showrooms and its own webshop at shop.verhelst.be, where contractors order the materials for their site and pick them up at a nearby branch or have them delivered.
