The case for a B2B ordering portal in Bulgaria
Bulgaria is a market of about 6.4 million people where B2B and wholesale portals are growing fast, with Sofia as its capital.
Bulgaria has SMEs make up 99% of all businesses in the European Union (European Commission). Bulgaria has strong IT-literate shoppers, high cash-on-delivery use and a mature courier network (Econt and Speedy). Euro adoption in 2026 makes cross-border EU selling simpler for local stores.
Shoppers and trade buyers in Bulgaria already compare options on their phones; a B2B ordering portal that loads fast, shows accurate stock and accepts Visa and Mastercard turns that research into orders.
What makes a Bulgaria store feel local
A store that works in Bulgaria respects local habits as well as local law. These are the details we configure first.
Currency and pricing
The store speaks euro (adopted 1 January 2026; previously the lev): EUR amounts from product page to invoice, so Bulgaria buyers never convert in their heads.
Language and content
We localise pages, emails and notifications into Bulgarian and English where your audience needs it.
Local trust signals
Badges for Visa and Mastercard and cash on delivery, Econt delivery and clear return terms reassure first-time buyers in Bulgaria.
Domain, phone and contact
A .bg domain (or your own) builds local trust and search relevance. Contact buttons are pre-set with +359, so a customer in Bulgaria taps once to call or message.
Custom-built for how you sell in Bulgaria
We do not hand Bulgaria businesses a ready-made theme: we study how you sell, then build the online platform and Android/iOS app your customers and staff actually need.
Typical clients include FMCG distributors, industrial suppliers, electrical and hardware traders and medical and institutional suppliers. Categories that sell especially well online in Bulgaria — electronics, fashion, home and garden and cosmetics — get catalogue structures and filters designed for them.
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 Bulgaria
These are the building blocks of a B2B ordering portal. We scope them with you, so you pay for what your Bulgaria operation needs.
Business accounts
Registration, KYC and approval, company hierarchies, branches, buyers and approvers with their own permissions. Stock can be held in Bulgaria or anywhere in Bulgaria, with pickup and local-delivery options where they make sense.
Contract pricing
Price lists by customer, group or territory, quantity slabs, pack sizes, minimum order values and negotiated rates. Dashboards break sales down by product, customer and neighbourhood of Bulgaria, so you see what to promote.
Quick and bulk ordering
SKU-code entry, spreadsheet upload, saved lists, re-order from history and scheduled repeat orders. Storefront language, imagery and navigation are set up for Bulgaria shoppers and available in Bulgarian and English.
Quotes and approvals
Request-for-quotation, counter-offers, purchase-order upload and multi-level approval before submission. Product data imports from your existing sheets or ERP, so Bulgaria teams do not re-type thousands of items.
Credit and payments
Online payment, credit limits, pay-later terms, outstanding statements and payment reminders where approved. Payment steps are built around Visa and Mastercard, cash on delivery and Revolut, the options shoppers here already trust.
Sales-team tools
Order on behalf of customers, territory assignment, visit notes and performance dashboards for representatives. Shipping rules can use Econt, Speedy and Bulgarian Posts as well as your own delivery staff in Bulgaria.
Checkout and payment methods for Bulgaria
A store that serves Bulgaria should let customers pay the way they do offline: Visa and Mastercard, cash on delivery, Revolut and bank transfer.
We integrate suitable gateways and providers for your business category and merchant eligibility, handle payment status, failed-payment retries and refunds, and keep sensitive card data with the provider rather than on your servers. All amounts are shown in euro (adopted 1 January 2026; previously the lev) (EUR).
- Revolut
- Bank transfer
- Cash on delivery
- EPay.bg
- Visa and Mastercard
- Apple Pay and Google Pay
Fulfilment options for Bulgaria orders
Your B2B ordering portal can book shipments and share tracking with Econt, Speedy, Bulgarian Posts, DHL, Sameday and Box Now lockers, or route orders to your own riders and stores.
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.
Tax, invoicing and compliance in Bulgaria
For Bulgaria sellers, tax first: Bulgaria charges 20% VAT (9% on tourism, 0% on certain items) and participates in the EU One-Stop Shop for cross-border B2C sales.
Customer data is handled with the GDPR, enforced nationally by the Commission for Personal Data Protection (CPDP) in mind, and the storefront follows the Consumer Protection Act and the Electronic Commerce Act, which set 14-day withdrawal and mandatory pre-contract information.
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.
Bulgaria sellers: marketplace plus your own store
Many Bulgaria sellers already list on eMAG.bg, OLX.bg, Amazon.de, Temu, Pazaruvaj price comparison and Facebook Marketplace. Those channels bring traffic, but they also take commission, control the customer relationship and change rules without notice.
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.
Industries in Bulgaria we work with
Popular online categories in Bulgaria include electronics, fashion, home and garden, cosmetics, auto parts and food products. In Bulgaria, we most often build B2B and wholesale portals for:
Wholesalers
We map how wholesalers sell today and digitise it end to end — from enquiry and order to payment, dispatch and repeat purchase.
FMCG distributors
For FMCG distributors, we usually start with quick and bulk ordering, then add accounting and e-invoicing once orders are flowing.
Industrial suppliers
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for industrial suppliers in Bulgaria, connected to the systems you already use.
Electrical and hardware traders
Electrical and hardware traders get quotes and approvals plus sales-team tools workflows tailored to their operations.
Medical and institutional suppliers
We map how medical and institutional suppliers sell today and digitise it end to end — from enquiry and order to payment, dispatch and repeat purchase.
Dealer networks
For dealer networks, we usually start with business accounts, then add logistics and freight partners once orders are flowing.
Take your Bulgaria store onto customers' phones
In Bulgaria, 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+3 so offers reach Bulgaria customers when they are awake, and the interface can run in Bulgarian and English.
- Warehouse and inventory systems
- WhatsApp and SMS notifications
- Credit and payment gateways
- ERP (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Tally, Zoho)
- Accounting and e-invoicing
- CRM and lead management
- Logistics and freight partners
- BI and reporting tools
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 Bulgaria
Value first, depth later. For a B2B ordering portal serving Bulgaria, the usual sequence looks like this:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Launch portal | Accounts, contract pricing, catalogue, ordering and ERP order sync. Configured for EUR, Visa and Mastercard and Econt from the start. |
| Automate | Quotes, approvals, credit, statements and notifications. |
| Expand | Dealer and sales-rep apps, analytics and new territories. Reviewed against how Bulgaria 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.
