Flower auction Sanremo improves its electronic auction system with KOSMOS

The Mercato dei Fiori Sanremo in Italy has decided to link its auction room to KOSMOS, our web-based trading and information platform. The auction concluded a standard five-year KOSMOS contract for 200 users and 1 clock. Sanremo will be the first flower auction using KOSMOS.  

By implementing KOSMOS, Sanremo resolutely opts for an extremely efficient software package in the cloud, enabling the flower auction to flawlessly manage and organise its clock sale. KOSMOS centralises all functionalities of supply, sale and after-sales, enabling the flower auction to offer a maximum, modern service to its buyers and suppliers. 

As the buyer public at Sanremo prefers to see the product physically in the auction room, the KOSMOS platform is implemented in combination with the local gallery. If desired in the future, Sanremo can decide at all times to add the remote buying functionalities.  

The local switch to KOSMOS will add great value to the auction’s daily functioning. The auctioneer will have a new range of functionalities a list which will only be extended thanks to the KOSMOS releases which are rolled out by Aucxis twice a year.  

The buyers and suppliers also benefit from the switch because they will have access to sales statistics and other reports. Furthermore, the buyers can prepare their purchase by consulting the supply expectation and catalogue, by marking lots etc.  

The taking-into-service of the standard KOSMOS platform in Sanremo’s auction room is planned for the beginning of 2022.
