Mobile search and AI are crucial in shaping the future of wholesale distribution. According to the National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors (NAW) article, How AI Will Impact Distribution – Leveraging the Power of AI #1, time is of the essence when it comes to the implementation of AI in wholesale distribution. “Distributors currently have a big leg up on would-be disruptors in the form of information and time. AI runs on momentum, and in the AI world more data points mean better customer experiences, which means more data points,” in NAW’s opinion.
AI paired with mobile search enhances accessibility, efficiency, and customer experience, enabling wholesalers to stay competitive and meet evolving market demands.
