E-commerce for wholesalers and distributors
Katana Commerce is our powerful e-commerce platform for wholesalers and distributors.
The new standard for wholesalers and distributors
More and more people are buying online and they expect more and more from the online stores they use. The same goes for your customers. Because of our many years of experience, Katana Commerce can meet our clients’ demands in the B2B market. And because of our B2B e-commerce platform’s flexibility and scalability, we can completely tailor it to every client. This makes Katana Commerce a powerful platform for your B2B online store.
Our platform works incredibly well for wholesalers, distributors, brands and manufacturers, and gives your customers the same user-friendly experience a B2C platform would. Of course, we’ll integrate your existing systems, like ERP and WMS, with Katana Commerce and all your data will synchronize across channels.
Ready for the future
As a distributor or wholesaler you’re faced with complex business processes and huge product listings and stocks. And you’re probably using several systems, like an ERP or WMS, or even both. Do you want to easily maintain control of it all and ensure everything runs smoothly and quickly? Katana Commerce is the solution for you.
These are some of our favorite features in Katana Commerce:
Solid foundation
Your future B2B online store will be built on the e-commerce platform Katana Commerce. Katana Commerce is built to be flexible and scalable and makes sure that all your, and your target audience’s, needs are met. For years we’ve put everything we’ve got into this platform and we’ve created the ultimate e-commerce package.
Selective product ranges
Do you have a product range that’s only available to a limited group of costumers or in a specific market? You’ll easily manage these selections by appointing products and categories to customer groups, countries or storefronts (because Katana Commerce has a multi-shop feature).
Flexible pricing groups
Not every customer of yours pays the same. Comprehensive pricing levels for each customer group or each client, combined with staggered discounts, are possible.
Quick orders
Katana Commerce has a ‘quick order’ form which allows your business customers to quickly and efficiently place their orders in your online store. And the form can be adjusted to meet your requirements and the needs of your business clients.
VAT
The prices shown in your online store can include or exclude VAT. You can even show wholesale prices only after a user is logged in.
Intra-community supply
If you export goods from the Netherlands to businesses within the EU but outside of the Netherlands, that’s known as intra-community supplying and is tax-free. You’ll have to validate your customer’s VAT number with the European VIES, which is fully automated in Katana Commerce.
B2B Credit checks
Katana Commerce has a connection with financial services which lets you easily check your B2B suppliers’ line of credit. This means you can safely and automatically let orders be placed on credit.
Multi-shop
Do you have several brands running on the same back end system and do you want a separate storefront for each? No problem.
Do you want to sell to both businesses and consumers? No problem either. With Katana Commerce you can manage any combination of B2B and B2C stores.
The flexible and scalable solution for your B2B needs
Integrate with any system
For over 15 years we’ve been integrating a wide variety of systems to our e-commerce software, from ERP systems, WMS systems, Payment Service Providers, check-out software, to accountancy software. Some of the products we have a lot of experience with are Navision, SAP, Unit4 and Exact.
A list of the possibilities:
PIM — Product Information Management
There are many benefits to managing your products from one centralized point. Katana has an extensive PIM environment that can be completely integrated. Already have a PIM system that you like? No problem, we can easily integrate that with Katana Commerce.
ERP integration
Katana Commerce can be completely integrated with your ERP or your financial package so all information is updated and exchanged automatically. We have a lot of experience integrating ERPs from companies like Navision, SAP, Unit4 and Exact. Do you use a different ERP? No problem, we can integrate any custom system.
WMS integration
Katana Commerce has multiple WMS connections available. A WMS (Warehouse Management System) is most often part of your ERP package. Some of our clients work with external logistic services (like 3PL) in which case we integrate the logistics funnel with their WMS. In any case, we can connect any WMS or 3PL supplier.
CRM
You can even manage your customer and supplier data in Katana Commerce without a separate CRM system. Want to continue using your existing CRM? We can connect that to Katana Commerce.
Passionate about hosting and support
Fast, secure and reliable hosting are some of the main ingredients of your online success. Your online store should perform fast and stable at all times.
Reliable hosting is part of our service. And our support team is at your service 24/7 to make sure your online store is functioning properly.
Innovating e-commerce
Technology is developing at breakneck speed, especially in the e-commerce landscape. This influences how customers get in touch with brands. We’re always working on the cutting-edge and we’re always looking to innovate. It’s how we create new opportunities for your online store.
Continuous development of your environment is done safely by use of a DTAP (Development, Testing, Acceptance and Production) street. This allows us to efficiently and in a controlled manner bring out new releases and implement patches.
And we use the Scrum method of managing our projects. Scrum is an agile framework and is used to develop software effectively and flexibly within teams.
