AccelDX leverages the AD Digital Content Catalog of 7.5 million SKUs to power the product content. The catalog, the expertise of the AD Digital Success team and the Roc Commerce platform provide members with a unique digital experience. For AD members just getting started on their digital journey, AccelDX provides an accessible opportunity to enter the digital landscape, accelerate their business and offer an online digital experience for their customers.

AccelDX: An All-in-One, Configurable Site

AD’s partnership with Roc Commerce enables members to go live faster and more effectively through the affordable, all-in-one, configurable site. The experienced AD Digital Success team simplifies and speeds delivery of the process. We don’t just deliver content; we deliver a digital experience, seamlessly integrated. AccelDX also includes the opportunity to grow into a fully integrated solution.

AD kicked off the pilot program with AB Pipe & Supply in September 2023.

“The AD AccelDX solution is very valuable, affordable, useful, and makes it easier for our customers to do business with AB Pipe,” says CEO, Enrique J. Collazo. “Before AccelDX, we had exchanged pictures of products with customers in Latin America through our sales team via email to place an order.”

The implementation of the site allowed this member to connect with buyers in a more effective and efficient manner.

“Every AD member should be digital enabled,” says Caroline Ernst, VP of eCommerce Solutions. “Our commitment to the future of independents means providing the right resources for their success. This offering helps members take their first step into their digital journey and allows AD to support their digital goals while reducing their resource requirements and delivering a modern customer experience.”
