    Discover the future of sourcing and specification within Programa

    With the Trade Portal 2.0, we’ve created a faster, smarter, and more seamless way to source, specify, and connect with leading brands—all while working on your projects in Programa.

    Programa Trade Portal Launch

    Whether you're sourcing products for a high-end residential project or managing schedules for a commercial space, the Trade Portal 2.0 is here to simplify your workflow and broaden your scope.

    The Trade Portal not only serves as a reliable source for products from trusted brands but also gives you a solid platform for determining exactly what you want to include in your project. Say, in some cases it could be a trigger for an entire Schedule.

    The marketplace made for designers and suppliers

    We understand the challenges designers face in sourcing the perfect products for their projects.

    • Time Constraints - Tight deadlines and project milestones mean every minute counts.
    • Discovery Needs - Finding the right product or exploring new trends can take hours.
    • Streamlined Collaboration - Coordinating with suppliers and clients should be seamless and much more efficient.

    That’s why we’ve reimagined the Trade Portal—to provide you with a central hub that meets these needs and more.

    What is it like behind the Trade Portal with Brands?

    A huge part of interior design is logistics and sourcing... Programa makes it easy to log, track, and transition between tasks, saving us so much time.

    Recommendations, category and brand highlights

    Every designer knows the power of inspiration and the impact of working with brands or styles that align with their aesthetic. That’s why we created recommendations —a personalised product suggestion feed where product suggestions are based on your schedules or product library. They showcase the latest offerings, crafted to captivate and connect with your project needs.

    With Programa Selects - explore curated capsules of products that showcase leading brands in the industry. Whether you’re seeking standout pieces for your projects or exploring new trends, browsing by brand or category makes it easy to discover what’s new and inspiring in the design world.

    Dive into Categories – curated selections of products from leading brands in different categories, from lighting to fixtures and fittings. These categories are designed to inspire your work and streamline your sourcing process.

    The Trade Portal isn’t just a showcase—it’s your gateway to the best the industry has to offer, helping you find the perfect pieces to bring your projects to life.
