Why a B2B ordering portal makes sense for Haiti
Haiti is a market of about 11 million people where B2B and wholesale portals are growing fast, with Port-au-Prince as its capital.
Haiti’s digital payments are led by mobile wallets such as MonCash, and a large diaspora sends remittances and buys goods for relatives. Stores need reliable local delivery partners and clear payment instructions.
That is why more companies in Haiti are moving from phone, WhatsApp and spreadsheet orders to a proper B2B ordering portal — one place where products, prices, payments, orders and customers are managed together.
What makes a Haiti store feel local
Conversion in Haiti depends on small local signals — the right currency, the right words and the right payment and courier names.
Currency and pricing
Everything a Haiti shopper sees — price, tax, delivery fee, refund — is in HTG, written the local way.
Language and content
Storefront copy, product pages and emails can run in Haitian Creole and French, with local date and number formats.
Local trust signals
We add the payment logos, courier names and policy pages shoppers in Haiti recognise: MonCash and NatCash and delivery through Poste Haïtienne.
Domain, phone and contact
A .ht domain (or your own) builds local trust and search relevance. Click-to-call and WhatsApp buttons use the +509 calling code so customers reach you without dialling errors.
Designed to your requirements, not a template
Whatever your business sells in Haiti, N&T Software designs and develops the B2B ordering portal and the matching mobile app exactly to your requirements — your catalogue, your prices, your payment and delivery rules.
Typical clients include FMCG distributors, industrial suppliers, electrical and hardware traders and medical and institutional suppliers. Categories that sell especially well online in Haiti — phones and electronics, fashion, food and building materials — 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.
What your B2B ordering portal includes
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. Product data imports from your existing sheets or ERP, so Haiti teams do not re-type thousands of items.
Contract pricing
Price lists by customer, group or territory, quantity slabs, pack sizes, minimum order values and negotiated rates. Checkout is configured for MonCash, NatCash and Visa and Mastercard (limited).
Quick and bulk ordering
SKU-code entry, spreadsheet upload, saved lists, re-order from history and scheduled repeat orders. Couriers such as Poste Haïtienne, DHL and Local couriers plug in alongside your own fleet for Haiti orders.
Quotes and approvals
Request-for-quotation, counter-offers, purchase-order upload and multi-level approval before submission. Stock can be held in Haiti or anywhere in Haiti, with pickup and local-delivery options where they make sense.
Credit and payments
Online payment, credit limits, pay-later terms, outstanding statements and payment reminders where approved. Reports show which products, customers and areas of Haiti drive revenue.
Sales-team tools
Order on behalf of customers, territory assignment, visit notes and performance dashboards for representatives. Content and design can follow how customers in Haiti search and buy, including Haitian Creole and French where you need it.
Payments customers in Haiti expect
Shoppers in Haiti rarely abandon a cart over price alone — they leave when their usual method is missing. Here that means MonCash, NatCash and Visa and Mastercard (limited), then cash on delivery and bank transfer.
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 HTG — card details stay with the provider.
- MonCash
- Cash on delivery
- Visa and Mastercard (limited)
- Bank transfer
- NatCash
Shipping, couriers and local delivery in Haiti
Your B2B ordering portal can book shipments and share tracking with Poste Haïtienne, DHL, Local couriers, Moto-couriers and Bus-line parcels, 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.
Rules Haiti sellers must respect online
On tax: Haiti charges 10% TCA (turnover tax) on goods and services, with customs duty on imports.
Customer data is handled with general privacy rights and emerging ICT rules under CONATEL in mind, and the storefront follows general consumer provisions in the Civil and Commercial Codes.
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.
Your own store alongside Facebook Marketplace and WhatsApp commerce
Facebook Marketplace, WhatsApp commerce and Local classifieds are where many shoppers in Haiti start, which is why sellers list there. The trade-off is commission, limited branding and rules the platform can change overnight.
Your B2B ordering portal becomes the hub: marketplaces and social shops become extra outlets fed from one catalogue, while repeat customers buy directly from you at better margins.
Who we build for in Haiti
Popular online categories in Haiti include phones and electronics, fashion, food, building materials, cosmetics and crafts. In Haiti, 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 Haiti, 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.
Android and iOS apps for your Haiti business
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.
Apps are published under your own developer accounts and share the same backend as your B2B ordering portal, so offers, stock and orders are always consistent between web and mobile.
Order alerts, offers and abandoned-cart reminders go out on Haiti time (UTC−4), in Haitian Creole and French if you want.
- Logistics and freight partners
- CRM and lead management
- Accounting and e-invoicing
- Warehouse and inventory systems
- WhatsApp and SMS notifications
- Credit and payment gateways
- ERP (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Tally, Zoho)
- 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.
How we phase your B2B ordering portal
We launch the journeys that create value first, then add depth. A typical roadmap for a B2B ordering portal in Haiti:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Launch portal | Accounts, contract pricing, catalogue, ordering and ERP order sync. Configured for HTG, MonCash and Poste Haïtienne from the start. |
| Automate | Quotes, approvals, credit, statements and notifications. |
| Expand | Dealer and sales-rep apps, analytics and new territories. Reviewed against how Haiti customers actually buy. |
We track order-entry time, share of orders placed online, order accuracy, days sales outstanding, repeat-order frequency and sales-rep productivity on a live dashboard from day one, so Haiti results are visible, not promised.
Time zones, language and support
Our team covers UTC−4 — 9h 30m behind India (IST) — through three 8-hour shifts, so a Haiti client always reaches someone during the local working day.
We work in English and can deliver storefront content in Haitian Creole and French. NDAs are signed on request, and you get a named project lead plus direct access to the engineers building your B2B ordering portal.
Our head office is in Chhapi, Gujarat, with an office in Hyderabad and representation in Nigeria, South Africa, Ethiopia and Zambia; clients in Haiti are served remotely with on-site workshops when the project needs them.
