Distributor Cyclone Bicycle Supply offers B2B mobile app for Android

Published May 4, 2015

PORTLAND, Ore. (BRAIN) — Cyclone Bicycle Supply has released the Cyclone Bike Shopper mobile app. The app allows Cyclone dealers to make orders, search Cyclone's catalog, create shopping lists, save favorite carts, scan items into carts, and manage payments. The app is available for mobile devices running Android 4.1 or higher — an  iOS version is coming in June.

Cyclone said retailers can use the app as a sales tool in the shop. Sales staff can display full-screen images and product descriptions, while hiding prices, to show product direct to consumers, and make special orders on the spot. "This gives retailers the ability to lock in sales, even if they don't currently have the product in-house," the company said.

The app can scan bar-coded products directly into a cart. If a scanned item is not found in the Cyclone database, the app sends the bar code information to Cyclone's purchasing team, who can add it to future purchasing plans and inventory.

The company said the app offers a "vastly improved" user experience comparted to its website. The app has quicker response time and more accurate search results, while maintaining the ability to quickly sort inventory and view current sales promotions.

The app is free and available to download from the Google Play Store or at cyclonebicycle.com.
