Do you know the situation when important information is difficult for your business partners to access or when ordering processes come to a standstill and your sales team is overloaded with routine inquiries?
In B2B e-commerce, products and services flow seamlessly between manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers. To optimize this complex exchange, a customized B2B e-commerce system that meets the requirements of the B2B sector is essential. B2B online stores typically contain pages that require authentication to interact with the respective content. This results in a multitude of different web applications that must be tailored to different business relationships:
- Retailer portal
- Supplier portal
- Sales portal
- Service portal
- Customer portal

5 advantages of a B2B shop
- stronger business relationships and lean processes
An e-commerce portal is more than just an online shop - it is a strategic tool that improves your business relationships and boosts your growth.
Show each target group the information that's relevant to them. Tailored product catalogs and offers ensure personal and appreciative communication.
In the B2B sector, there are various pricing structures such as list prices and customized terms, supplemented by discounts, budgets, and surcharges. With our integrated dealer portals, you maintain overview and central control of these elements directly from your ERP system. This way, all data is always up to date, and complex shipping costs are transparently displayed before the order is placed.
Offer your customers added value with exclusive promotions, self-service functions and targeted communication. A B2B portal builds trust and strengthens long-term partnerships.
Your customers have access to all important information, such as product descriptions and availability, at any time. Orders can be placed independently, reducing the workload on your team. This automates redundant tasks and frees up resources for the truly important things. So, it's not about replacing someone; it's about empowering your sales team with a B2B dealer portal.
Tap into new markets. A B2B portal supports you in scaling your business across national borders. A digital retailer platform, which is linked to the merchandise management systems of all national companies through automated processes, significantly optimizes workflows.
Gain valuable insights into the behavior of your customers. Analyze order patterns, interests and trends to continuously optimize your sales strategy.
