M&BS Tools as an Online Shop

Built as a complete mobile-first shopping solution, the M&BS Tools app functions as a digital storefront, bringing the full M&BS product lineup directly into the hands of users. Whether it’s a contractor sourcing urgent tools mid-project or a hobbyist planning their next DIY build, the app offers a direct purchase experience without the need to visit a store or desktop website.

Each item within the app is presented with rich visuals and detailed specifications, helping customers make confident buying decisions quickly. From product discovery to secure checkout and delivery tracking, every part of the shopping journey is handled within the app, removing friction and saving time.

The Concept Behind M&BS Tools

The idea behind the M&BS Tools app stemmed from a clear understanding of the modern buyer’s expectations, particularly in fast-paced industries such as construction. M&BS recognised that its customers were no longer just shopping from desktops or showrooms. They were mobile, working across multiple locations, and needed tools fast.

The goal was to build an app that aligned with this shift, one that could deliver the entire M&BS experience from a mobile device. It had to be quick, reliable, and fully capable of supporting urgent, informed purchases from job sites, warehouses, or even on the road.

More than just a sales platform, the app was envisioned as a smart utility, giving users the power to act immediately when they needed something, with all the information and functionality they’d expect from a trusted hardware supplier.

Challenges & Solutions

Challenge 1 – Handling a Large Product Catalog

Managing hundreds of SKUs with technical specifications and images was a major task. Solution: We used optimized backend architecture and APIs to enable fast loading and smooth navigation.

Challenge 2 – Creating a Mobile-First eCommerce Experience

Existing systems weren’t ideal for mobile users in active work environments. Solution: A clean, intuitive UI was designed with simplified navigation and thumb-friendly controls.

Challenge 3 – Secure and Reliable Transactions

High-value items needed a trustworthy checkout process. Solution: Secure, encrypted payment gateways and real-time order tracking were implemented.

Challenge 4 – Keeping Users Engaged

Driving repeated use was essential for ROI. Solution: Push notifications and app-exclusive promotions were added to increase user retention.
