The Buying Network

We are a purchasing cooperative, service supplier, and distributor to the commercial marine sector including fishing, seafood processing, deep sea, tug & barge and cruise ship businesses. Some of the products we sell to our customers in the fishing and seafood industry are used in other industries or for personal use. You will find some of these items for sale on our website. If you don't see what you are looking for, please contact us. We most likely have it, as we sell around 10,000 different items to our current customers. You have the same challenges in business if you have a small company, a fishing vessel or work for a large maritime company. You need to save money on the goods your purchase. We work with companies that have thousands of crew members on ships to small food processors that only have a handful of employees. The Buying Network works very close with our customers in the food processing side of the seafood industry. From the survey of equipment, providing sanitation training for personnel, and the supply of all the necessary products to clean and sanitize their processing facilities, The Buying Network is YOUR PARTNER - not just another supplier. Many of our customers are involved in the production of food products for human consumption. Given this, we feel that training of personnel in the proper use of our products is very important. Our contention is that if our customers employ our products correctly, they will produce a quality product and they will greatly reduce the likelihood of contamination - contamination that we hear so much about these days on the news. The line of products that we sell for use in the food processing industry is extensive and as such cannot be listed in its entirety here on our website. You will find however, items such as latex gloves,rainwear, aprons, beard covers, hair nets and packaging tape that can be purchased online. The Buying Network also supplies a myriad of products to the general marine sector of our business. Products such as absorbents: chemical absorbents and oil absorbents (available for purchase on our website); chemicals (Drew Marine and Wesmar company); filters; refrigerants and everything (A to Z) in between. We supply these products and more - every day, to customers that operate very large ships, fleets of vessels and operators of all types of commercial businesses. We take our customer service seriously. The Buying Network has been an Accredited Business of the Better Business Bureau since 2001 and has NEVER received a complaint. Do business with a company you can trust.
