Technology and R&D

A wholesaler that is also a software company

Elektro3 is a wholesale distributor of hardware, DIY, industrial supplies, and construction materials — and develops its own technology: the type we install in your store, the type that brings brand products to the point of sale, built by a 100% in-house product and R&D team, and tested in real stores.

Why we talk about it

Putting technology at the sector’s service

We have been investing in our own technology for years so that independent retailers can compete on equal terms with any rival.

We do not integrate third-party software or outsource development: we have an in-house product, design, and engineering team that designs, builds, and deploys every tool — from the B2B platform used by thousands of hardware retailers to the technology physically entering the point of sale, bringing brand products directly to the final buyer.

Each solution is studied and tested in real commercial spaces before hit the market. That is how a distributor from 1993 has also become a tech company.

We work with a modern web, mobile, data, and cloud stack. If you work in this field, you know what it means to have real users from day one and the scope to do things right.

Work with us

We look for talent and attitude

All of this is built by local people. We are a company with more than 35 years in the hardware business, but we operate like a modern and dynamic firm with a strong technological component: in-house development, a B2B platform, and an expanding R&D team. If you are driven by challenges and teamwork, we want to meet you.
