Website for a wholesaler
Business buyers want to log in, see their own prices and reorder fast. A catalogue without a login is a brochure to them; a portal with their terms is a tool.
In short
- Own prices per customer after login
- Reorder from previous orders
- Stock and lead time per item
How it works in this industry
Business buyers behave differently from consumers: they reorder repeatedly, with fixed article numbers, at prices that differ per customer. A public catalogue without a login is useless to them, because the price shown is not the price they pay.
A portal with their own terms changes that. Reordering from history, tiers that calculate themselves and lead times per item save your office hours a day — and lower the threshold to order outside office hours.
What usually goes wrong
- Price lists emailed around and going stale
- Orders retyped by hand
- Customers calling for stock information

Frequently asked questions
Can each customer see their own prices?
Yes, based on tiers and agreements per customer. Without a login only the range is visible, not the terms.
Can it connect to my ERP?
In most cases yes, through an integration or a scheduled file exchange.
Do I have to publish my prices?
No. Without a login you show the range, with a login the terms. Your pricing policy stays yours.
Can I set minimum order quantities?
Yes, per item or per customer, including packaging units.
