Abstract: A method of e-commere which allows a supplier/manufacturer to display and sell its products to customers without requiring the supplier/manufacturer to maintain a website and where the Supplier/Manufacturer sets the selling price and gross margin requirements for products sold on the website. The supplier/manufacturer needs only input product information using a series of simple web forms to upload its product information to the internet via the website, thus making the supplier/manufacturer's products viewable and purchasable by any potential customer who accesses the website. The website is equipped with electronic data interchange (EDI) software to automate the input of information to the website, to automate the fulfillment of orders and to assist with maintaining inventory control.
