Our History

The concept
Icommerce was founded in Paris in 1995. At the time, independent distribution of IT products was unknown in France as well as other parts of Europe. The Icommerce idea was to sell global networking and server options to French distribution channels - "Buy Global, Sell Local" - in order for our customers to benefit from price advantages and availability differences between different countries and rebate programs.

Our initial concept is still the basis of our business model today. We don't sell to end-users, we do wholesale only. We have however enlarged our product portfolio to cover almost all aspects of networking as well as including servers, options and storage from several high quality vendors.

Building our reputation
Icommerce is a privately owned and fully independent company with solid financial backing. We have worked hard to build the quality and reliability of our business and have for years been awarded the AAA rating by Dun & Bradstreet and a solid rating by "La Banque de France".


Expanding across Europe
Icommerce's central administration and warehouse is geographically well located in the outskirts of Paris, France, close to one of Europe's busiest airports, Roissy CDG, with its excellent logistics and transport facilities.

As our business has grown, we have also established local branch offices in Reading (GB), Milan (IT), Munich (D) , Odense (DK). Madrid (SP), and recently in Warsaw (P). We will continue expanding our presence to cover all major markets in Europe and ensure closeness to our customers, understanding their business needs, language and local preferences.

Continuous improvement
In 2002, Icommerce set up a testing and repair centre to meet the growing demand for reliable refurbished solutions expressed by our customers. Today, the buying, testing, selling and repairing of quality refurbished products is an integral part of our business.

Financial Solutions are the latest step in providing our customers with a better service. Icommerce offers the best credit terms available in the business, including credit card facilities, short-term and long-term credit arrangements, and rental and leasing solutions.

In Autumn 2003, Icommerce launched the most sophisticated extranet in the industry. We believe the IT environment is so competitive that a simple web shop cannot provide our customers with the prices and conditions they need. We have therefore decided to give selected customers wider access to valuable and personalised information. We can help you personalise your customer profile and email settings so you can quickly access information about your account and orders and ensure you only receive information that interests you.
