Wholesale Ordering Portal for Trade Customers
A wholesale ordering portal that turns repeat buyers into online regulars.
Give trade customers one place to sign in, see their account prices and send their next order. Porosi connects your branded wholesale ordering portal to your order desk, so products, quantities and delivery notes arrive together.

Order desk reviews
Real Porosi product screens. Customers can order on iOS, Android or the web, and submitted orders appear in the supplier dashboard for review.
Portal route
From customer login to an order your team can act on.
A wholesale ordering portal is a website where approved trade customers order from their supplier using their own account details and prices. With Porosi, a buyer can build a weekly stock order at a desk or send a top-up from a phone browser. Both reach the same supplier dashboard.
Show their products and prices
The buyer signs in to your branded portal and sees the catalogue and prices assigned to their account.
Build the next order
Buyers find familiar lines, adjust quantities and add delivery notes before submitting the basket.
Review and fulfil
Your team receives the customer, lines, quantities, prices and notes together, ready for review and the next fulfilment step.
One order, two perspectives
Portal ordering must make customers faster and staff more confident.
A buyer builds the order from the products, prices and history available to their account. When they press submit, approved customer login, private products, customer-specific prices and order history stay with the order, so the supplier can check it without retyping a call, email or message.
Customer side
Trade buyers need
- A private supplier-branded place to order online.
- Products, prices and order history that match their account.
- A browser route for larger baskets, notes and office-led buying.
Supplier side
Supplier teams need
- Cleaner order detail before fulfilment.
- Visibility over customer details and changed quantities.
- A portal that works with the branded app rather than creating another queue.
What the supplier receives
What matters in wholesale portals: private account depth.
The supplier team receives one order record with approved customer login, private products, customer-specific prices and order history. Staff can check exceptions before picking, delivery or invoice preparation begins.
Access
Public storefront
Anyone can browse like a retail shopper.
Approved portal
Ordering starts from known trade accounts.
Pricing
Generic catalogue
Staff repair product or price assumptions later.
Account pricing
The buyer sees customer details before submission.
Operations
Checkout receipt
The order still needs office reconstruction.
Review workflow
Submitted orders reach staff with usable context.
Rollout
Move your regular orders online with a manageable first rollout.
Start with a small group of repeat customers and a familiar product range. Confirm their prices and access, show them how to place an order, then review their first submissions with the order desk before inviting more buyers.
Choose portal-fit accounts
Start with office buyers, larger baskets or customers who already need order history.
Run normal orders
Build real baskets with notes, quantities and customer-specific prices.
Review the next step
Check whether staff can act on submitted orders without rebuilding them from calls or emails.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Wholesale Ordering Portal for Trade Customers
What is a wholesale ordering portal?
A wholesale ordering portal lets approved trade customers sign in, browse their supplier's catalogue, see their account prices and submit orders online. Porosi connects that customer journey to the supplier dashboard for order review and fulfilment.
Do customers need to install an app to use the portal?
No. Customers can use the portal in a web browser on a computer, tablet or phone. Porosi also offers supplier-branded iOS and Android apps for buyers who prefer a mobile app.
Can each wholesale customer see different prices?
Yes. The catalogue and prices follow the approved trade account. Your team manages customer access and commercial terms so a buyer sees the products and prices intended for their account.
How do we move existing customers onto the portal?
Begin with a small group of regular buyers. Prepare their products, pack sizes and account prices, invite them to sign in and review the first orders with your staff. A Porosi demo can walk through that process using a typical order from your business.
