Gaithersburg, MD Xometry is an on demand manufacturer with 4000 overseas suppliers and over 1000 USA suppliers. Xometry acquired Thomasnet for $300 million and will enable Xometry to expand both its buyer and seller bases. Xometry is trying to become the Amazon of digital manufacturing. Additionally, Xometry provides raw materials and manufacturing equipment.
The ongoing relationship of industrial buyers seeking sellers is undergoing some radical changes and these effects have some serious long run implications for American manufacturing. Xometry is making a serious attempt to change the dynamics of this relationship.
It is critical to understand these two buying processes:
• Thomasnet connects buyers with sellers.
• Xometry controls & executes the transaction.
The issue of how much control buyers will give to a second party and lose personal relationships will define the next generation of industrial buying and The Fight for the Industrial Buyer.
