The on-line semen company, Semenstore Ltd, has announced an agreement with
the British Blue Cattle Society to market British Blue semen through its
website, semenstore.co.uk, from early 2010.
Launched in January this year, Semenstore Ltd is a subsidiary company of
Limousin Solutions Ltd. The company’s on-line site, semenstore.co.uk,
has to this point sold semen exclusively from approximately 70 Limousin bulls.
As from early 2010 the site will now include semen from a selection of pedigree
British Blue bulls.
Welcoming the agreement, Iain Kerr the Director of Semenstore Ltd said: “We
are delighted to have the British Blues on board. The semenstore.co.uk aim
is to provide a fully automated and comprehensive “one-stop-semen-shop” that
makes it easy to market, sell, locate and buy semen. The website has traded
significantly, including exports, in its first 10 months and the addition
of British Blue semen will be a further enhancement to semenstore.co.uk.”
John Fleming, Secretary of the British Blue Cattle Society said: “We’ve
been impressed by the principle of the website and how straightforward it
is to use. It is professional and modern and will provide an added value
service for both British Blue pedigree breeders and commercial customers.”
The site has been built flexibly and with a view to being able to incorporate
other interested breeds, species and companies. Fully automated, semenstore.co.uk
enables prospective purchasers in the UK and abroad to browse, consider,
and purchase semen of their choice, there and then, online. All handling
and delivery costs are included in the final price and delivery is made to
the purchaser’s designated delivery address, accommodating both DIY
AI and Technician services.
For those selling semen, semenstore.co.uk markets bulls in a professional,
co-ordinated and efficient manner. It collects all monies due, credit accounts
on a monthly basis and looks after all aspects of storage, delivery and stock
maintenance on the seller’s behalf. Taking out the admin and work involved
in semen selling has proved a popular benefit for vendors.
Through administering a portfolio of semen on behalf of a Limousin and British
Blue customer base, and by automating processes to semen companies, semenstore.co.uk
provides competitive prices on semen storage, delivery and handling costs
for buyers and sellers. Very much in keeping with a partnership-based approach
the Cheshire-based semen company, Cogent Breeding Ltd, act as the on-line
site’s central storage and delivery hub.
