We set up your own tools

supplier to storefront.

What the setup includes

We are your supplier

Every business starts with stock. We carry 179 brands across 22 departments, from drill bits and abrasives to pumps and generators, with complete product data ready to load. You choose the range that fits your market, we supply it, and you never chase a dozen distributors for accounts, minimums and spec sheets again.

We get you on the marketplaces

Takealot and Amazon are where South Africa already shops online. We set up your seller accounts, load your listings with the images, specifications and copy the platforms require, and show you how to manage pricing and orders. You start selling where the buyers already are.

We build your online home

When you are ready for your own storefront, we make it happen. A website that carries your name, your catalogue and your customers, built for you as part of the setup.

The catalogue is already built

Whatever range fits your market, we already carry it, with the product data to match.

One supplier instead of dozens

One account with us replaces a stack of distributor relationships. One order, one invoice, one contact who answers the phone.

Eight years on the marketplaces

We have sold on Takealot every day since 2018. The advice you get is not theory, it is what we did this morning.

We run what we set up for you

The listings, the repricing, the order flow we build for your business are the same systems we run in our own business every single day.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need experience in ecommerce or in tools?

No. The setup exists so that you do not have to learn eight years of lessons the hard way. We handle the technical build and show you how to run the day to day.

Do I need my own warehouse to start?

No. We structure the stock arrangement around your situation in the planning session, and you scale your holding as your sales grow.

How much stock do I need to buy to start?

That depends on the range you choose. We size your opening order to your budget and your market in the planning session, and you build from there.

What does the setup cost?

There is a once-off setup fee, sized to what you need built, plus your opening stock order. You will have the full figure in writing before anything starts, with nothing added after.

Can I choose exactly which products and brands I stock?

Yes. You are not buying a fixed bundle. We build your catalogue product by product from 179 brands until it fits the market you want to serve.

Do I sell under my own name?

Yes. Your business, your name, your customers. We stay in the background as your supplier.

How long before I am selling?

Marketplace setups move quickly once your catalogue is chosen. We give you a firm launch date for each channel in the planning session.

What happens after launch?

We stay with you. Restocking, new product lines, listing updates and advice are part of the relationship, because we only do well when you sell.

The short version

ORM sets up your own tools and hardware business from end to end. We supply your stock from 179 brands, get you selling on Takealot and Amazon, and build your website when you are ready. You bring the ambition. We bring eight years of doing exactly this, every day, in our own business.
