Company accounts for buyers
Each wholesale customer set up as a company with locations, buyer contacts, and permissions, imported from your spreadsheet.
The Problem
Wholesale Orders Still Arrive as Emails and PDFs
Most brands start wholesale with a price sheet and an inbox. That works for a few buyers. As the list grows, orders get retyped, prices drift, and stock counts go wrong.
01 · Retyped orders
Buyers email PDF order forms that your team retypes line by line.
Buyers log in and order online, so orders land in your admin directly.
02 · Price drift
Buyers get old prices because the price sheet lives in a spreadsheet.
Each buyer's company gets a catalog with its own price list.
03 · Case packs
Buyers order single units of items you only sell by the case.
Quantity rules set minimums and increments, so orders match your case packs.
04 · Split stock
Wholesale orders don't reduce your Shopify stock count.
Retail and wholesale sell from one inventory, so your counts stay right.
Your wholesale buyers email a PDF order form on Monday morning. Someone on your team retypes 40 lines into a draft order, checks each price against a spreadsheet, and sends an invoice by hand. One buyer gets last season's price. Another orders 3 units of an item you only sell in cases of 12. Wholesale sales didn't come off your Shopify count, so a retail shopper buys an item you no longer have. And the wholesale app you tried added price rules your theme can't read.
We start with a wholesale review: your buyers, price levels, minimums, and terms. Then we set up the B2B tools built into your store: companies, wholesale catalogs, case-pack quantity rules, and payment terms. Buyers log in, see their own prices, and reorder on their own. Orders land in the same admin as retail, not in someone's inbox.
Companies, not discount codes
Each wholesale buyer becomes a company with locations, contacts, prices, and terms of its own.
Case packs built in
Quantity rules and volume pricing match how you already sell: by the case or the carton.
Terms buyers can use
Payment terms and saved cards let approved buyers check out without calling you first.
Our Shopify B2B Ecommerce Agency Process
From Wholesale Review to Live B2B Ordering in Five Clear Steps
You approve the B2B plan before anything changes in your store, then place test orders as a real wholesale buyer before your first company goes live.
We look at your Shopify plan, buyer list, price sheets, minimums, and how orders arrive today. You get a short note on which B2B tools your plan includes, what needs Plus, and whether native B2B fits at all.
What's Included
What You Get With Shopify B2B Wholesale Setup
Every setup covers buyer companies, wholesale catalogs, pricing rules, payment terms, theme changes for logged-in buyers, and a tested B2B checkout before your first invite goes out.
Compare Options
DeveloperLook vs Wholesale App vs Separate Store
Wholesale apps launch fast, and a separate store keeps buyers apart. Native B2B keeps one admin. Here's where each option holds up as your buyer list grows.
| Feature | DeveloperLookBest fit | Wholesale app | Separate store |
|---|---|---|---|
| Planning | Buyers and prices mapped first | App defaults, then adjust | A second store to plan |
| Time to launch | 1 to 6 weeks | Often live within days | Weeks for a second theme |
| Buyer pricing | Native catalogs and price lists | App price rules | Separate prices per store |
| Inventory | One stock count for all | One stock count | Synced between two stores |
| Checkout | Native B2B checkout with terms | Depends on the app | Standard checkout per store |
| Staff orders | Draft orders per company | Varies by app | Draft orders in store two |
| Running cost | Included in your Shopify plan | Monthly app fee | A second Shopify plan |
| Cost to start | From $750, fixed scope | Your setup time plus fees | Theme and data duplicated |

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from teams we have built online stores and store features for.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
What I appreciate most is that the website is actually easy for us to manage now. We can update content ourselves instead of sending a developer a message every time we need to change something small. They also paid attention to the technical SEO side, which mattered to us because we didn’t want a new website to create problems for the traffic we already had. I’ve probably asked more questions than I should have since launch, but every question has been handled patiently and without any fuss. The team is easy to work with, they explain things clearly, and when we need something changed, they focus on getting it done rather than making the process complicated.

Work Culture
Why Wholesale Brands Trust Us With Their B2B Setup
Wholesale buyers order on trust: the right price, the right minimum, and the right terms. These habits keep your B2B setup accurate from the first invite.
Native features before apps
If Shopify's own B2B tools cover your buyers, we won't add a wholesale app with its own fees. If your case needs one, we'll say why before we quote.
Plan limits checked first
Basic, Grow, and Advanced allow up to 3 active B2B catalogs, while Plus has no catalog cap. We check your price levels fit your plan before building anything.
Price lists from your sheet
We import prices from the sheet your team already uses, then compare every line after import. A wrong wholesale price costs you margin on every order.
Tested as a real buyer
We log in as a test company and order at each price level. Minimums, terms, and taxes get checked before any of your buyers see them.
Staff trained on draft orders
Phone and email buyers won't vanish overnight. Your team learns to create draft orders for a company, so those orders follow the same prices and terms.
Your store, your data
Companies, catalogs, and price lists stay native to your Shopify admin. Nothing sits inside our tools, so any developer can take over later.

Good fit
Brands taking wholesale orders by email
Your wholesale buyers email PDF order forms, and someone on your team retypes every line into Shopify as a draft order.
Stores on Basic, Grow, or Advanced
You heard Shopify B2B features no longer need Plus, but you don't know which ones your plan has or where to start.
Brands running a separate wholesale store
Your wholesale buyers log into a second store or a wholesale app, so stock, prices, and orders live in two places.
Plus stores with account-level pricing
You're on Plus, and each key account needs its own catalog and terms, which Shopify Plus B2B handles per company location.
Agencies with a wholesale client
Your agency won a wholesale brand and needs a B2B Shopify agency to set up companies, catalogs, and terms under your name.
Not a fit
Budget under $750
You sell to a few buyers at one wholesale price and your budget is under $750. A simple price list app or a wholesale discount may cover it.
Quotes and approval chains
Your buyers need quotes, approval chains, or a portal beyond Shopify's B2B tools. Our B2B Ecommerce Website Development service builds that kind of store.
Selling through Faire instead
You want new retailers to find you on a wholesale marketplace, not in your own store. Our Faire Wholesale Integration service connects that channel.
ERP sync comes first
Your prices, stock, and customers live in an ERP, and keeping them in step is the hard part. Our Shopify ERP Integration service handles that first.

Send a message or book a call with the team.
Native B2B costs nothing extra on Basic, Grow, and Advanced since April 2026, so you pay for your plan, any apps, and setup. Setup with DeveloperLook starts at $750 for one wholesale catalog and up to 25 companies. Three catalogs and 200 companies start at $1,950, and Plus B2B builds start at $4,200.
A B2B setup on Shopify takes 1 to 2 weeks for one catalog and a short buyer list. Three catalogs, 200 companies, and theme changes take 3 to 4 weeks. Plus builds with location catalogs and checkout rules take 4 to 6 weeks. Most of that time goes into cleaning your buyer list and price sheets, not clicking settings.
Shopify B2B is the wholesale toolset built into the Shopify admin. You create a company for each buyer, give its locations a catalog with wholesale prices, and add payment terms and quantity rules. Buyers log in to your usual storefront and see their own prices, while retail shoppers keep seeing yours.
Shopify is both: one store can sell to retail shoppers and wholesale buyers at the same time. Retail customers see your public prices and checkout. Buyers linked to a company see their catalog, terms, and minimums after they log in. Some brands still run a separate wholesale store, but that means a second plan and two stock counts.
Yes, Shopify for B2B works well when your buyers reorder known products at clear price levels. Companies, catalogs, volume pricing, and payment terms cover most wholesale needs. It gets harder with negotiated quotes, approval chains, or very large buyer-specific price files, where Plus or a custom build fits better. We'll tell you which side you're on during the free review.
No, not since April 2, 2026, when Shopify opened its core B2B tools to Basic, Grow, and Advanced. Those plans get company profiles, payment terms, volume pricing, vaulted cards, and up to 3 active B2B catalogs. Shopify Plus B2B adds unlimited catalogs for customer-specific pricing, catalogs assigned straight to companies and locations, deposits, and partial payments.
A B2B catalog decides which products a buyer sees and what each costs, as a percentage adjustment or fixed prices. On Basic, Grow, and Advanced, catalogs attach to B2B markets, with up to 3 active. On Plus, you can assign a catalog straight to a company location. Quantity rules and volume pricing sit inside the catalog too.
Start by creating a company for each wholesale buyer, with its locations and contacts, under Customers in your admin. Then build a catalog with wholesale prices, add quantity rules and payment terms, and assign it through a B2B market or, on Plus, to each location. Finally, place a test order as a buyer before you send any invites.
Yes. Your staff can create a draft order for a company location, and Shopify applies that location's catalog prices and payment terms. Staff can then send an invoice or complete the order on the buyer's terms. That keeps phone and trade show orders inside the same rules as the orders buyers place online.
Every plan includes post-launch support: 14 days on B2B Essentials, 30 days on Wholesale Channel, and 60 days on Plus B2B Build. We fix setup issues, answer staff questions, and help as buyer invites go out. After that, you can book changes as small fixed-price jobs, and you keep full access to everything we set up.
