The case for a B2B ordering portal in Slovenia
Slovenia is a market of about 2.1 million people where B2B and wholesale portals are growing fast, with Ljubljana as its capital.
Slovenia has SMEs make up 99% of all businesses in the European Union (European Commission). Slovenia is a compact, high-income EU market where many brands (Elan, Gorenje, Petrol) export. Digital-first shoppers expect eurozone-quality delivery and English/Slovenian storefronts.
That is why more companies in Slovenia 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.
Local details we build into every Slovenia project
A store that works in Slovenia respects local habits as well as local law. These are the details we configure first.
Currency and pricing
Prices, taxes, shipping and refunds are shown in euro (EUR), formatted the way Slovenia customers read them.
Language and content
Storefront copy, product pages and emails can run in Slovenian, English and German, with local date and number formats.
Local trust signals
Badges for Visa and Mastercard and Flik mobile payments, Pošta Slovenije delivery and clear return terms reassure first-time buyers in Slovenia.
Domain, phone and contact
A .si domain (or your own) builds local trust and search relevance. Contact buttons are pre-set with +386, so a customer in Slovenia taps once to call or message.
A B2B ordering portal built around your Slovenia business
Whatever your business sells in Slovenia, 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.
In Slovenia we typically work with wholesalers, FMCG distributors, industrial suppliers and electrical and hardware traders, and with sellers in categories such as sporting goods, electronics, fashion and home appliances that have strong online demand in Slovenia.
Before any commitment you get a free requirements meeting, a demo built on your use case and a proposal priced to your budget.
Core modules we build for Slovenia clients
These are the building blocks of a B2B ordering portal. We scope them with you, so you pay for what your Slovenia operation needs.
Business accounts
Registration, KYC and approval, company hierarchies, branches, buyers and approvers with their own permissions. Delivery can be booked through Pošta Slovenije, GLS Slovenia and DPD Slovenia or dispatched by your own riders around Slovenia.
Contract pricing
Price lists by customer, group or territory, quantity slabs, pack sizes, minimum order values and negotiated rates. Stock can be held in Slovenia or anywhere in Slovenia, with pickup and local-delivery options where they make sense.
Quick and bulk ordering
SKU-code entry, spreadsheet upload, saved lists, re-order from history and scheduled repeat orders. Revenue reports by product, repeat buyer and delivery area of Slovenia guide stock and marketing decisions.
Quotes and approvals
Request-for-quotation, counter-offers, purchase-order upload and multi-level approval before submission. Storefront language, imagery and navigation are set up for Slovenia shoppers and available in Slovenian and English.
Credit and payments
Online payment, credit limits, pay-later terms, outstanding statements and payment reminders where approved. Catalogues come in from spreadsheets, ERP exports or supplier feeds, so your Slovenia team keeps its current way of working.
Sales-team tools
Order on behalf of customers, territory assignment, visit notes and performance dashboards for representatives. Payment steps are built around Visa and Mastercard, Flik mobile payments and PayPal, the options shoppers here already trust.
Payments customers in Slovenia expect
A store that serves Slovenia should let customers pay the way they do offline: Visa and Mastercard, Flik mobile payments, PayPal and Apple Pay and Google Pay.
Gateway selection depends on your category and merchant approval; we connect the provider, reconcile payments, automate retries and refunds, and never store raw card data. Prices, taxes and refunds appear in euro (EUR).
- Revolut
- PayPal
- Apple Pay and Google Pay
- Visa and Mastercard
- Flik mobile payments
- Bank transfer
Delivery and fulfilment across Slovenia
Your B2B ordering portal can book shipments and share tracking with Pošta Slovenije, GLS Slovenia, DPD Slovenia, Overseas, Hrvatska pošta (cross-border) 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.
Selling online legally in Slovenia
On tax: Slovenia charges 22% VAT with 9.5% and 5% reduced rates, and uses the EU One-Stop Shop for B2C sales.
On privacy we design around the GDPR and the Personal Data Protection Act (ZVOP-2), enforced by the Information Commissioner; on consumer rights the store reflects the Consumer Protection Act and the Electronic Commerce Market Act, with 14-day withdrawal rights.
Our job is the engineering: price display with tax, invoice numbering, cookie and marketing consent, return and terms pages, role-based access and logs. Legal and tax conclusions stay with your own adviser.
Marketplaces vs. your own B2B ordering portal in Slovenia
Many Slovenia sellers already list on Bolha.com, Mimovrste, Amazon.de, Zalando, Bigbang and Vinted. Those channels bring traffic, but they also take commission, control the customer relationship and change rules without notice.
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.
Businesses that use NNT Mart in Slovenia
Popular online categories in Slovenia include sporting goods, electronics, fashion, home appliances, food and wine and pharma and health. In Slovenia, we most often build B2B and wholesale portals for:
Wholesalers
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for wholesalers in Slovenia, 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 Slovenia, connected to the systems you already use.
Dealer networks
Dealer networks get sales-team tools plus contract pricing workflows tailored to their operations.
Android and iOS apps for your Slovenia business
In Slovenia, 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.
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+2 so offers reach Slovenia customers when they are awake, and the interface can run in Slovenian and English.
- WhatsApp and SMS notifications
- Warehouse and inventory systems
- CRM and lead management
- Accounting and e-invoicing
- BI and reporting tools
- Credit and payment gateways
- Logistics and freight partners
- ERP (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Tally, Zoho)
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
Value first, depth later. For a B2B ordering portal serving Slovenia, 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 Pošta Slovenije from the start. |
| Automate | Quotes, approvals, credit, statements and notifications. |
| Expand | Dealer and sales-rep apps, analytics and new territories. Reviewed against how Slovenia 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.
Support hours and communication for Slovenia
Slovenia runs on UTC+2, which is 3h 30m behind India (IST). With three 8-hour shifts we are available 24×7, so meetings, demos and urgent fixes happen in your working hours.
We work in English and can deliver storefront content in Slovene. 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 Slovenia are served remotely with on-site workshops when the project needs them.
