Business-to-Consumer (B2C), which represents trade between companies on the one hand and individual customers on the other.

Business-to-business e-commerce, referred to as the B2B symbol, represents e-commerce between one company and another.

E-commerce offers many advantages that companies can benefit from, such as:

More effective marketing, and more profits: The adoption of companies on the Internet in marketing, allows them to display their products and services in different parts of the world without interruption - the length of hours and day of the year - which gives these companies a greater opportunity to profit, in addition to reaching more customers .
Corporate expense reduction: The process of setting up and maintaining e-commerce sites is more economical than retail or office maintenance. Companies do not need to spend heavily on promotional items, or install expensive equipment for customer service. The company does not seem to need to use a large number of staff to carry out inventory and administrative work. Online databases maintain the date of sales and customer names. This enables a single person to retrieve the information in the database to check the dates of sales.
Communicate effectively with partners and customers: Fold e-commerce distances and cross borders, providing an effective way to share information with partners. E-commerce provides a good opportunity for companies to benefit from the goods and services provided by other companies (ie suppliers), in what is called e-commerce from companies to companies
(Business-to-Business).
