SAP tech powers new Buy Social Directory

Social Enterprise UK (SEUK) has launched the Buy Social Directory based on the SAP Commerce Cloud.

This allows consumers to search for social enterprises by geography, location, product area, and social/environmental mission. The directory will be supported with the information from SEUK’s 2,500 members with the aim to make it the definitive search tool to find products and suppliers.

This represents phase one of SAP’s collaboration with Social Enterprise UK. The project went from contract to live in two months. Peter Holbrook, Chief Executive at SEUK, comments: “The impact of our purchasing decisions is becoming ever more apparent and shoppers are increasingly looking for gifts that make a positive difference in the world around them.”

He adds: “The new Buy Social Directory will be the Google for those who want to use their spending power to help build a better world and the Christmas gift guide is a treasure trove of presents with purpose. Through buying social this Christmas, you are making a real difference to people’s lives.”
