Hundreds of sellers – ranging from Fortune 500 companies to small retailers – use the B-Stock Supply marketplace to sell bulk lots of inventory directly to business buyers. One such company is Kingdom Supply, a family-owned wholesale company specializing in wireless and consumer electronics accessories.
Kingdom Supply was established in 2015 by father-sons team Steve, Joshua and Shawn Smucker. The company came to fruition years after Joshua and Shawn (sons) realized their knack for selling online. At ages 11 and 9, with encouragement from their father, the boys started selling electronic and computer games online; soon they branched out into buying and refurbishing consumer electronics for resale. Eventually Joshua and Shawn partnered with their father Steve to launch Kingdom Supply, which has grown into a thriving resale business on B-Stock Supply.
Shawn Smucker, Owner/Manager of Kingdom Supply, says B-Stock Supply has been an integral part of the business’ growth, enabling them to surpass initial sales projections. Case in point: within a calendar year the company went from listing 10 auctions per week to 120, and increased its monthly GMV by 1,466%. Even better, this growth created jobs and a need for more space: Kingdom Supply has gone from a team of three to 12 and will be doubling its warehouse size in order to accommodate new products. Congrats guys!
We are extremely happy to have Kingdom Supply as one of our B-Stock Supply sellers and to provide Shawn, Joshua and Steve with a technology-based and data-driven platform that enables their business to thrive.
