Business to Business Shipping (B2B)
Business to Business shipping anywhere in the U.S.
Business-to-business, or B2B, orders relates to the processing of orders that are sent to businesses and/or retailers as opposed to sending orders directly to the end consumer. The most common types of B2B relationships in e-commerce are distributors, suppliers, and wholesalers.
