With increased popularity of online shopping, industrial hand tools manufacturers have commenced making changes in their retail strategies, and have been adopting omni-retail channels. Entering the e-commerce platform, these manufacturers are now offering various products on the basis of customer requirements. A major goal of manufacturers in leveraging the e-commerce is to expand their customer base across different geographies, devoid of physical occupancy in that specific country. This will further help them in bolstering their sales in the near future.
