Workwear & PPE suppliers, Uniform and merchandise companies, Wholesalers & distributors

Overview

  • Workwear & PPE suppliers
  • Uniform and merchandise companies
  • Wholesalers & distributors
  • Manufacturers selling to trade customers

Bulk Ordering Portal replaces emailed spreadsheets with a private shop for your trade customers.

A custom B2B ordering system for suppliers who sell in volume to approved business customers. Each customer signs in to a private portal, orders products in every size and variant they need in one go, and adds delivery notes for the site or person receiving it. The admin side manages the catalogue, stock, customers and orders, with VAT, order status and exports built in. Our first build runs JM Group Ireland's workwear and safety footwear ordering.

Problems it solves

  • Bulk orders arriving by email, phone and spreadsheet

  • Sizes and variants mixed up on large orders

  • No single view of what each customer has ordered

  • Stock levels checked by hand before confirming

  • Public shops that anyone can order from

  • The resultNo more order spreadsheetsCustomers order every size in one go, and the portal records each SKU and quantity.
  • The resultEvery order in one placeStatus, addresses, VAT and notes sit with the order, from first click to completed.
