Hyundai Steel just rolled out its online mall, which it named Hcore Store. The steelmaker said on Tuesday, May 9, that it would be selling various construction materials via its first online store.
Buyers may find some of the leading products of Hyundai Steel, such as pipes, section steel, and rebars, at the newly-opened Hcore Store. This will be the company's official e-commerce platform, and it was created with the aim of increasing the sales of steel materials in the country.
Hyundai Steel is also hoping to secure its own digital sales channels, and setting up Hcore Store is the start. The Korea Economic Daily reported that at this time, the operation of the online mall is still on pilot, and during this trial period, price estimates and product pricing will already be available.
Hyundai Steel will officially operate its Hcore Store online mall in July after gathering feedback from users. It will consider all the suggestions and opinions before it adds more products on the site, such as plate materials.
For customers' convenience, the mall will also feature product comparisons to help them decide on their purchases. Korea's Economy Talk News also mentioned that the Hcore Store would also offer services that will make buying easier.
People can request quotations for various items, including steel pipes and reinforcing bars. They only need to input the stock name and quantity of the items they would like to buy, and Hcore Store will provide the total amount.
Customers can then decide whether to proceed with the purchase or not. They can also edit the list to adjust the price of the items based on their budgets. Finally, Hyundai Steel's sales network across the country consists of some 70 storage sites with about 50 partner distributors thus, the distribution or shipment of the items is not a problem.
"Hcore Store's interface features intuitive terminology and simple design considering user convenience as the top priority, so product inventory status by region is viewable at a glance," Hyundai Steel stated.
