Does Applegate Marketplace charge buyers?
No. Buyers use Applegate entirely free of any charges whether self-sourcing suppliers via search or asking them to gather quotes for them via “Request for Quotation”. There are no fees, commissions, etc whatsoever for buyers using Applegate.
Does Applegate Marketplace charge Suppliers?
Yes. Applegate charges a membership fee for Suppliers to join Applegate. As a member, suppliers receive a Company Profile to give an overview of their products and services. In addition to this, an unlimited allowance is given for members to upload all the products, services, or “keywords” they would want to be found for in buyer searches. Of course, members are also able to quote on relevant “Requests for Quotation” as buyers place them.
How many other businesses will I be quoting against?
You will only be directly quoting against others when you are responding to the Request to Quotation you are added to. On average across all industries you would be quoting against 3 other parties (if you would like a figure specific to your industry to please contact them). Note however that most buyers use their search to self-source and in those visits, they are not adding additional suppliers as they have not been asked to. The more content you add to your Company Profile the more searches you will appear in and the more direct enquiries you are likely to receive over and above the Requests for Quotation.
