B2B eCommerce Platform Built for Manufacturers 

Customizable solution for complex catalogs, contract pricing, and multi-channel selling. 

ECOMMERCE FOR MANUFACTURERS

Run Distributor, Partner, and D2C Channels on One Platform

 

Manufacturers sell through several routes to market at once: distributors, partners, and direct to consumers.

 

Bringing those channels onto one system is hard. Each channel needs its own catalog, pricing and terms, and a direct-to-consumer (D2C) model has to fit specific products and niches. Many platforms are not built to run all of them together.
 
Virto Commerce is a digital commerce platform for organizations building sales operations, procurement, and distribution ecosystems, across the online channels through which they sell, buy, and serve. It is built for businesses running several models on one foundation: multiple entities, markets and segments, large catalogs, configurable products and negotiated pricing. For manufacturers, that means distributors, partners and consumers each get the catalog, pricing and experience they need, from one platform.

WHY VIRTO?

Built Around How Manufacturers Sell

 

Virto Commerce gives manufacturers a fully customized platform, with a customer experience tailored to each audience it serves.

1. Virto Atomic Architecture™

Virto Atomic Architecture™ is the proprietary technology powering the Virto Commerce Engine, built on the core pillars of composability, an open ecosystem, high performance, and scalability. It lets you replace one capability at a time while the business keeps trading.

Built on Virto Atomic Architecture™, the Virto Commerce Engine is delivered as a managed composable platform: one that keeps working while you change it, and does not get harder to change as you go. Virto can run it for you in Virto Cloud, or your team can run it as a self-managed deployment. Either way, Virto and systems integrators (SIs) keep delivering improvements that add value over time.

3. eCommerce Frontend for Every Device

Modern frontend technology supports any digital commerce scenario. It works across all devices, delivers excellent performance, and is equally effective for acquiring new customers and building customer loyalty.
