E-Commerce Solutions for Manufacturers, Wholesalers & Retailers

An e-commerce platform is the software your online store runs on: catalog, checkout, orders, and customer accounts. For most Canadian manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers, Shopify and Shopify Plus are the strongest choice, because they handle security, hosting, and payments out of the box and scale from a simple store to a full B2B wholesale portal. The right fit depends on your order volume, whether you sell wholesale, and which systems you need to connect. We are a Certified Shopify partner and help you choose based on your operation, not a sales quota.

A straightforward Shopify build typically runs in the low tens of thousands of dollars, while a B2B portal with ERP integration and custom pricing runs higher. The platform subscription is separate and modest next to the build. The largest cost driver is scope: catalog size, the number of integrations, and any custom checkout logic. We scope fixed-price projects so you know the number before we start, and you own everything at the end.

Yes. Shopify Plus supports company accounts, contract pricing per buyer, net payment terms, and self-serve wholesale ordering, and it can run alongside your direct-to-consumer store on the same platform. For manufacturers and distributors, a Shopify B2B portal connected to the ERP lets wholesale buyers place orders themselves instead of emailing or phoning a sales rep, which frees the team from manual order entry.

It is the connection that lets your store and your back-office systems share data automatically. When Shopify is integrated with your ERP, orders post to the ERP without re-keying, inventory and pricing stay in sync, and fulfillment and tracking flow back to the customer. It removes the manual data entry that eats staff time and causes errors, and it is often the highest-return part of an e-commerce project.

A standard Shopify store is usually a few weeks. A B2B portal with ERP integration and custom pricing typically takes 2 to 4 months, depending on how many systems connect and how clean the starting data is. We work in fixed scope with weekly check-ins, so you always know where the project stands and what happens next.

Yes. You own everything: the store, the code, the integrations, and the accounts. We do not lock clients into systems only we can maintain. Everything is month to month, and we measure success by how little you need us once it is running.
