Zoro operates Zoro.com, a B2B eCommerce platform offering nearly 12 million tools, parts and supplies to business customers. Founded in 2011, the company applies a consumer-style shopping experience to industrial distribution, working at the intersection of technology and distribution across MRO, tools and supplies. The catalog has grown to more than 750,000 unique products, up from fewer than 100,000 at launch, and the business generates over $1 billion in annual revenue.
For technologists, the work spans eCommerce, digital distribution technology and B2B digital experience at scale. Zoro partners with Grainger on enterprise initiatives, including SOX compliance and internal controls governance, which brings regulatory and internal-controls considerations into the engineering and business environment alongside the core platform.
Headquartered in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, with an additional presence in downtown Chicago, the company has expanded from an original team of six to more than 150 employees and from a 2,000 square foot building to over 60,000 square feet of office space. Zoro describes its culture as one of digital innovation and positions itself for continued expansion.
