Why Dhaka businesses are investing in B2B and wholesale portals
Dhaka is a capital and largest city of bangladesh, home to about 17 million people, and one of the markets in Bangladesh where we build B2B and wholesale portals.
Key sectors include banks, MFS providers and garment buyers, with business districts such as Gulshan, Banani and Motijheel.
Logistics are supported by Hazrat Shahjalal Airport, which matters when you promise customers fast delivery.
Bangladesh has a huge young population and a fast-growing Facebook-led commerce culture moving to proper stores. bKash and Nagad wallets plus COD are essential.
Shoppers and trade buyers in Dhaka already compare options on their phones; a B2B ordering portal that loads fast, shows accurate stock and accepts bKash turns that research into orders.
What makes a Dhaka store feel local
Conversion in Dhaka depends on small local signals — the right currency, the right words and the right payment and courier names.
Currency and pricing
Everything a Dhaka shopper sees — price, tax, delivery fee, refund — is in BDT, written the local way.
Language and content
Storefront copy, product pages and emails can run in Bengali and English, with local date and number formats.
Local trust signals
We add the payment logos, courier names and policy pages shoppers in Dhaka recognise: bKash and Nagad and delivery through Pathao Courier.
Domain, phone and contact
Using .bd where it suits you signals a local business to shoppers and search engines. Contact buttons are pre-set with +880, so a customer in Dhaka taps once to call or message.
Talent and partners nearby
With University of Dhaka and BUET close by, finding people to manage catalogues, content and support after launch is realistic in Dhaka.
Custom-built for how you sell in Dhaka
Every NNT Mart B2B ordering portal in Dhaka is engineered to the client's own brief — the web platform, the admin panel and, when you need one, a mobile application built for your workflow.
In Dhaka we typically work with wholesalers, FMCG distributors, industrial suppliers and electrical and hardware traders, and with sellers in categories such as fashion and garments, electronics and mobiles, groceries and books that have strong online demand in Bangladesh.
Before any commitment you get a free requirements meeting, a demo built on your use case and a proposal priced to your budget.
Features of your B2B ordering portal in Dhaka
Each module below is configured — or custom-developed — to your requirements. You choose what launches first and what follows in later phases.
Business accounts
Registration, KYC and approval, company hierarchies, branches, buyers and approvers with their own permissions. Catalogues come in from spreadsheets, ERP exports or supplier feeds, so your Dhaka team keeps its current way of working.
Contract pricing
Price lists by customer, group or territory, quantity slabs, pack sizes, minimum order values and negotiated rates. Checkout is configured for bKash, Nagad and Rocket.
Quick and bulk ordering
SKU-code entry, spreadsheet upload, saved lists, re-order from history and scheduled repeat orders. Couriers such as Pathao Courier, RedX and Steadfast plug in alongside your own fleet for Dhaka orders.
Quotes and approvals
Request-for-quotation, counter-offers, purchase-order upload and multi-level approval before submission. Multiple stock points in Bangladesh are supported, so a Dhaka order ships from the nearest one.
Credit and payments
Online payment, credit limits, pay-later terms, outstanding statements and payment reminders where approved. Dashboards break sales down by product, customer and neighbourhood of Dhaka, so you see what to promote.
Sales-team tools
Order on behalf of customers, territory assignment, visit notes and performance dashboards for representatives. Pages, search filters and wording are tuned to how people in Dhaka look for products, in Bengali and English if your audience needs it.
Payments customers in Dhaka expect
A B2B ordering portal for Dhaka must support the way people here actually pay: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, cash on delivery, Visa and Mastercard and SSLCommerz gateway.
Provider approval, settlement time and fees differ by business type, so we shortlist gateways with you, then wire up status updates, refunds and reconciliation in BDT — card details stay with the provider.
Zone-based payment rules let you offer different options for Gulshan than for outer parts of Dhaka.
- SSLCommerz gateway
- Cash on delivery
- Nagad
- Rocket
- BKash
- Visa and Mastercard
Delivery and fulfilment from Dhaka
Your B2B ordering portal can book shipments and share tracking with Pathao Courier, RedX, Steadfast, Paperfly, Sundarban Courier and Bangladesh Post, or route orders to your own riders and stores across Dhaka.
We set up shipping zones, cut-off times, free-shipping thresholds, cash-collection rules and returns so the promise on the product page matches what your team can deliver.
Connectivity in the area — Hazrat Shahjalal Airport — makes regional and national dispatch from Dhaka practical.
Compliance built into your B2B ordering portal
On tax: Bangladesh VAT is 15% standard with reduced rates on some goods, administered by the National Board of Revenue.
Customer data is handled with the Personal Data Protection Ordinance 2025 together with the Cyber Security Ordinance in mind, and the storefront follows the Consumer Rights Protection Act 2009 and the National Digital Commerce Guidelines, which govern advance payments and delivery times.
Controls we implement include compliant invoices, consent capture, policy pages, restricted staff access and audit trails. Please confirm the final legal and tax position with a local adviser in Dhaka.
Dhaka sellers: marketplace plus your own store
For a Dhaka business, Daraz, Chaldal, Rokomari and Pickaboo are useful shop windows — but fees, ranking changes and shared customer data limit how far you can grow on them alone.
With your own B2B ordering portal you keep the customer data, set the offers and the packaging, and still push stock to marketplaces from a single admin.
Businesses that use NNT Mart in Dhaka
Popular online categories in Bangladesh include fashion and garments, electronics and mobiles, groceries, books, beauty and home. Local demand in Dhaka is shaped by banks, MFS providers and garment buyers, so we often design catalogues and B2B ordering around those sectors. In Dhaka, we most often build B2B and wholesale portals for:
Wholesalers
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for wholesalers in Dhaka, connected to the systems you already use.
FMCG distributors
FMCG distributors get contract pricing plus quotes and approvals workflows tailored to their operations.
Industrial suppliers
We map how industrial suppliers sell today and digitise it end to end — from enquiry and order to payment, dispatch and repeat purchase.
Electrical and hardware traders
For electrical and hardware traders, we usually start with credit and payments, then add warehouse and inventory systems once orders are flowing.
Medical and institutional suppliers
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for medical and institutional suppliers in Dhaka, connected to the systems you already use.
Dealer networks
Dealer networks get sales-team tools plus contract pricing workflows tailored to their operations.
Mobile commerce in Dhaka
In Dhaka, shoppers browse on phones first. A dealer and sales-representative app lets buyers re-order in seconds, scan products, check statements and receive scheme announcements, while reps take orders at the counter even with patchy connectivity.
One backend serves the website and the apps, and the apps ship under your own Google Play and App Store accounts — so what you change once appears everywhere.
Push notifications can be timed to UTC+6 so offers reach Dhaka customers when they are awake, and the interface can run in Bengali and English.
- Accounting and e-invoicing
- BI and reporting tools
- Credit and payment gateways
- ERP (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Tally, Zoho)
- Logistics and freight partners
- Warehouse and inventory systems
- WhatsApp and SMS notifications
- CRM and lead management
Integrations above are examples; we connect any system that offers a suitable API, database access or approved import and export process.
From first demo to growth in Dhaka
We launch the journeys that create value first, then add depth. A typical roadmap for a B2B ordering portal in Dhaka:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Launch portal | Accounts, contract pricing, catalogue, ordering and ERP order sync. Configured for BDT, bKash and Pathao Courier from the start. |
| Automate | Quotes, approvals, credit, statements and notifications. |
| Expand | Dealer and sales-rep apps, analytics and new territories. Reviewed against how Dhaka customers actually buy. |
Success is measured on order-entry time, share of orders placed online, order accuracy, days sales outstanding, repeat-order frequency and sales-rep productivity — tracked on a dashboard you can see from launch day.
Working with our team from Dhaka
Our team covers UTC+6 — 0h 30m ahead of India (IST) — through three 8-hour shifts, so a Dhaka client always reaches someone during the local working day.
Project communication is in English; storefront content can be produced in Bangla. You get a named lead, direct engineer access and an NDA if you ask.
Our head office is in Chhapi, Gujarat, with an office in Hyderabad and representation in Nigeria, South Africa, Ethiopia and Zambia; Dhaka clients are served remotely with on-site workshops when the project needs them.
