Reach the hardware network directly
Hardware shops browse by category and region before they browse by price. Being listed is what makes you findable at the moment they are restocking.
Target where you actually sell
Boost visibility in the regions that matter to you — Kakamega rather than Kisumu — priced on hardware coverage and turnover potential in each.
See real demand, not guesswork
Category demand by region, where your prices sit against comparable products, and which regions look but do not buy.
Verification that means something
Every manufacturer is checked against BRS, KRA and IPRS records. The badge is worth something to buyers precisely because not everyone gets one.
What onboarding involves
Have your BRS certificate, KRA PIN certificate, tax compliance certificate, CR12 and director IDs to hand. You can save and come back at any point.
Create your account

Company details
Registered details as they appear at BRS and KRA.

Review & submit
Check everything before it goes to Buildex Operations.
Buildex verifies your registration against BRS, your PIN against KRA and each director against IPRS. Newer companies may also get a plant visit — you can list products while that is outstanding.
