The case for a manufacturer and dealer portal in Korhogo
Korhogo is a place in savanes, ivory coast, where around 441,000 people live and shop, and one of the markets in Côte d'Ivoire where we build manufacturer and distributor portals.
Northern regional capital — a business base that increasingly wants to sell online rather than through calls, messages and spreadsheets.
Côte d'Ivoire is francophone West Africa's largest economy, with Abidjan as a regional hub. Wave and Orange Money checkout in French are essential.
For a business in Korhogo, the opportunity is to own the customer relationship: your own manufacturer and dealer portal keeps your margin, your data and your brand, while marketplaces and social channels become additional sales routes instead of the only one.
What makes a Korhogo store feel local
Conversion in Korhogo depends on small local signals — the right currency, the right words and the right payment and courier names.
Currency and pricing
The store speaks West African CFA franc: XOF amounts from product page to invoice, so Korhogo buyers never convert in their heads.
Language and content
We localise pages, emails and notifications into French where your audience needs it.
Local trust signals
Badges for Orange Money and MTN MoMo, La Poste de Côte d'Ivoire delivery and clear return terms reassure first-time buyers in Korhogo.
Domain, phone and contact
A .ci domain (or your own) builds local trust and search relevance. Click-to-call and WhatsApp buttons use the +225 calling code so customers reach you without dialling errors.
A manufacturer and dealer portal built around your Korhogo business
Every NNT Mart manufacturer and dealer portal in Korhogo 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.
Typical clients include engineering component makers, electrical and automation brands, building-material manufacturers and auto-parts companies. Categories that sell especially well online in Côte d'Ivoire — fashion, phones and electronics, beauty and groceries — 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.
Core modules we build for Korhogo clients
These are the building blocks of a manufacturer and dealer portal. We scope them with you, so you pay for what your Korhogo operation needs.
Technical catalogue
Product families, models, variants, specification tables, comparison and application or industry filters. Customers in Korhogo can pay with Orange Money, MTN MoMo and Wave, with receipts and refunds handled in the same admin.
Document library
Datasheets, manuals, CAD drawings, certificates and price lists with public, registered or partner-only access. Couriers such as La Poste de Côte d'Ivoire, DHL and Yango Delivery plug in alongside your own fleet for Korhogo orders.
Enquiries and RFQs
Project enquiries, quotation requests, lead routing to the right region and status tracking. Stock can be held in Korhogo or anywhere in Côte d'Ivoire, with pickup and local-delivery options where they make sense.
Partner portal
Dealer and distributor sign-in, territory-based catalogues, protected pricing, schemes and targets. Dashboards break sales down by product, customer and neighbourhood of Korhogo, so you see what to promote.
Spares and service
Spare-part lookup by model or serial number, accessories, warranty registration and service requests. Content and design can follow how customers in Korhogo search and buy, including French where you need it.
Channel insight
Dashboards for partner orders, secondary sales, product interest and regional demand. Catalogues come in from spreadsheets, ERP exports or supplier feeds, so your Korhogo team keeps its current way of working.
Who we build for in Korhogo
Popular online categories in Côte d'Ivoire include fashion, phones and electronics, beauty, groceries, home and baby products. Northern regional capital — which shapes what local businesses need online. In Korhogo, we most often build manufacturer and distributor portals for:
Machinery and equipment manufacturers
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for machinery and equipment manufacturers in Korhogo, connected to the systems you already use.
Engineering component makers
Engineering component makers get document library plus partner portal workflows tailored to their operations.
Electrical and automation brands

For building-material manufacturers, we usually start with spares and service, then add dealer management systems once orders are flowing.
Auto-parts companies
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for auto-parts companies in Korhogo, connected to the systems you already use.
Importers and master distributors

How Korhogo customers pay online
Shoppers in Korhogo rarely abandon a cart over price alone — they leave when their usual method is missing. Here that means Orange Money, MTN MoMo and Wave, then Moov Money, Visa and Mastercard and cash on delivery.
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 West African CFA franc (XOF).
- Orange Money
- Moov Money
- Cash on delivery
- Visa and Mastercard

- MTN MoMo
Shipping, couriers and local delivery in Korhogo
Your manufacturer and dealer portal can book shipments and share tracking with La Poste de Côte d'Ivoire, DHL, Yango Delivery and local couriers, or route orders to your own riders and stores across Korhogo.
Delivery rules can price by distance, weight, postcode or zone, offer same-day slots in dense areas, and switch on pickup points or click-and-collect where customers prefer them.
Owning your channel in Côte d'Ivoire
Jumia Côte d'Ivoire, Jiji and Yango Deli are where many shoppers in Korhogo start, which is why sellers list there. The trade-off is commission, limited branding and rules the platform can change overnight.
Your manufacturer and dealer 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.
Selling online legally in Côte d'Ivoire
On tax: Ivorian VAT (TVA) is 18% standard, with a reduced 9% rate for some goods.
Customer data is handled with Law No. 2013-450 on the protection of personal data, overseen by ARTCI in mind, and the storefront follows Law No. 2016-412 on consumption and Law No. 2013-546 on electronic transactions.
We build the technical controls — tax-inclusive pricing, compliant invoices, consent banners, terms and return pages, data-access roles and audit logs. We are not a law firm, so final legal and tax positions should be confirmed with your own adviser in Côte d'Ivoire.
Add a mobile app for Korhogo customers
In Korhogo, shoppers browse on phones first. Dealer, field-sales and service-technician apps can scan QR codes on products, look up spares, register warranties and place orders from the shop floor or the customer site.
Apps are published under your own developer accounts and share the same backend as your manufacturer and dealer portal, so offers, stock and orders are always consistent between web and mobile.
Push notifications can be timed to UTC+0 so offers reach Korhogo customers when they are awake, and the interface can run in French.
- CRM and lead routing
- Dealer management systems
- WhatsApp Business API
- ERP and production planning
- E-invoicing and tax systems
- Logistics partners
- Warranty and service software
- PIM and DAM for product data
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 Korhogo
We launch the journeys that create value first, then add depth. A typical roadmap for a manufacturer and dealer portal in Korhogo:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Catalogue and enquiries | Technical catalogue, documents and RFQ capture with CRM routing. Configured for XOF, Orange Money and La Poste de Côte d'Ivoire from the start. |
| Partner portal | Dealer sign-in, protected pricing, ordering and ERP sync. |
| Service and apps | Spares, warranty, service requests and field apps. Reviewed against how Korhogo customers actually buy. |
Success is measured on qualified enquiries per month, quote-to-order conversion, dealer portal adoption, secondary-sales visibility, spare-part order accuracy and time to answer technical queries — tracked on a dashboard you can see from launch day.
