The case for a B2B ordering portal in Liepāja
Liepāja is a state city in courland, latvia, with a population of roughly 67,000, and one of the markets in Latvia where we build B2B and wholesale portals.
The local economy is driven by port logistics, metals, shipbuilding and energy, and commercial activity concentrates around the Kurzeme Concert Hall area and the Liepāja port zone.
Logistics are supported by Port of Liepāja and Liepāja Airport, which matters when you promise customers fast delivery.
Latvia has SMEs make up 99% of all businesses in the European Union (European Commission). Latvia sits between Baltic neighbours with a similar shopper profile: bank-link payment, locker delivery and bilingual Latvian/Russian customers. Local brands use webshops to reach the wider Baltic and Nordic region.
That is why more companies in Liepāja 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.

Custom-built for how you sell in Liepāja
We do not hand Liepāja 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 Latvia — electronics, fashion, home and DIY and cosmetics and wellness — 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.

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 Liepāja 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 Visa and Mastercard, Latvian bank links (Swedbank, SEB, Luminor) and Smart-ID.
Quick and bulk ordering
SKU-code entry, spreadsheet upload, saved lists, re-order from history and scheduled repeat orders. Shipping rules can use Latvijas Pasts, Omniva and DPD Latvija as well as your own delivery staff in Liepāja.
Quotes and approvals
Request-for-quotation, counter-offers, purchase-order upload and multi-level approval before submission. Stock can be held in Liepāja or anywhere in Latvia, 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. Dashboards break sales down by product, customer and neighbourhood of Liepāja, so you see what to promote.
Sales-team tools

Popular online categories in Latvia include electronics, fashion, home and DIY, cosmetics and wellness, food and timber and furniture.

Checkout and payment methods for Liepāja
A B2B ordering portal for Liepāja must support the way people here actually pay: Visa and Mastercard, Latvian bank links (Swedbank, SEB, Luminor), Smart-ID, Revolut, Apple Pay and Google Pay and Klarna.
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 (EUR).

- Revolut
- Klarna
- Visa and Mastercard
- Apple Pay and Google Pay
- Latvian bank links (Swedbank, SEB, Luminor)
- Smart-ID
Delivery and fulfilment from Liepāja
Your B2B ordering portal can book shipments and share tracking with Latvijas Pasts, Omniva, DPD Latvija, Itella SmartPost, Venipak and parcel lockers, or route orders to your own riders and stores across Liepāja.
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 — Port of Liepāja and Liepāja Airport — makes regional and national dispatch from Liepāja practical.
Owning your channel in Latvia
SS.lv, Kurpirkt and Amazon.de are where many shoppers in Liepāja 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.
Tax, invoicing and compliance in Latvia
On tax: Latvia charges 21% VAT with 12% and 5% reduced rates, and uses the EU One-Stop Shop for B2C distance sales.
On privacy we design around the GDPR and the Personal Data Processing Law, enforced by the Data State Inspectorate; on consumer rights the store reflects the Consumer Rights Protection Law, with 14-day withdrawal and Latvian-language information duties.
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 Liepāja.
Take your Liepāja store onto customers' phones
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.
Push notifications can be timed to UTC+3 so offers reach Liepāja customers when they are awake, and the interface can run in Latvian and Russian.
- WhatsApp and SMS notifications
- Accounting and e-invoicing
- BI and reporting tools
- CRM and lead management
- Logistics and freight partners
- ERP (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Tally, Zoho)
- Warehouse and inventory systems
- Credit and payment gateways
Integrations above are examples; we connect any system that offers a suitable API, database access or approved import and export process.
A phased launch plan for Liepāja
Value first, depth later. For a B2B ordering portal serving Liepāja, 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 Latvijas Pasts from the start. |
| Automate | Quotes, approvals, credit, statements and notifications. |
| Expand | Dealer and sales-rep apps, analytics and new territories. Reviewed against how Liepāja 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 Liepāja results are visible, not promised.
Time zones, language and support
Our team covers UTC+3 — 2h 30m behind India (IST) — through three 8-hour shifts, so a Liepāja client always reaches someone during the local working day.
We work in English and can deliver storefront content in Latvian. 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; Liepāja clients are served remotely with on-site workshops when the project needs them.
