Why Olomouc businesses are investing in manufacturer and distributor portals
Olomouc is a commercial centre in Czech Republic where around 103,000 people live and shop, and one of the places where we build manufacturer and distributor portals for local businesses.
Businesses here work in universities and healthcare; many are based around the city centre and Science Park.
Logistics are supported by Rail links, which matters when you promise customers fast delivery.
The Czech Republic has SMEs make up 99% of all businesses in the European Union (European Commission). Czechia has one of Europe's highest numbers of online shops per capita and very price-aware buyers who compare on Heureka. Packeta pickup points and cash on delivery are still popular.
That is why more companies in Olomouc are moving from phone, WhatsApp and spreadsheet orders to a proper manufacturer and dealer portal — one place where products, prices, payments, orders and customers are managed together.
Localised for Olomouc, not translated into it
Conversion in Olomouc depends on small local signals — the right currency, the right words and the right payment and courier names.
Currency and pricing
The store speaks Czech koruna: CZK amounts from product page to invoice, so Olomouc buyers never convert in their heads.
Language and content
We localise pages, emails and notifications into Czech where your audience needs it.
Local trust signals
Badges for Visa and Mastercard and instant bank transfers (GoPay, ComGate), Česká pošta delivery and clear return terms reassure first-time buyers in Olomouc.
Domain, phone and contact
A .cz domain (or your own) builds local trust and search relevance. Click-to-call and WhatsApp buttons use the +420 calling code so customers reach you without dialling errors.
Talent and partners nearby
With Palacký University close by, finding people to manage catalogues, content and support after launch is realistic in Olomouc.
Designed to your requirements, not a template
If you run a business in Olomouc and want to sell online, we build an e-commerce platform and mobile application to your exact requirements, from the first product page to the last delivery update.
Typical clients include engineering component makers, electrical and automation brands, building-material manufacturers and auto-parts companies. Categories that sell especially well online in the Czech Republic — electronics, groceries, cosmetics and fashion — 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 manufacturer and dealer portal in Olomouc
Each module below is configured — or custom-developed — to your requirements. You choose what launches first and what follows in later phases.
Technical catalogue
Product families, models, variants, specification tables, comparison and application or industry filters. Revenue reports by product, repeat buyer and delivery area of Olomouc guide stock and marketing decisions.
Document library
Datasheets, manuals, CAD drawings, certificates and price lists with public, registered or partner-only access. Pages, search filters and wording are tuned to how people in Olomouc look for products, in Czech if your audience needs it.
Enquiries and RFQs
Project enquiries, quotation requests, lead routing to the right region and status tracking. Catalogues come in from spreadsheets, ERP exports or supplier feeds, so your Olomouc team keeps its current way of working.
Partner portal
Dealer and distributor sign-in, territory-based catalogues, protected pricing, schemes and targets. Payment steps are built around Visa and Mastercard, instant bank transfers (GoPay, ComGate) and cash on delivery (dobírka), the options shoppers here already trust.
Spares and service
Spare-part lookup by model or serial number, accessories, warranty registration and service requests. Shipping rules can use Česká pošta, Zásilkovna (Packeta) and PPL as well as your own delivery staff in Olomouc.
Channel insight
Dashboards for partner orders, secondary sales, product interest and regional demand. Stock can be held in Olomouc or anywhere in Czech Republic, with pickup and local-delivery options where they make sense.
Payments customers in Olomouc expect
A store that serves Olomouc should let customers pay the way they do offline: Visa and Mastercard, instant bank transfers (GoPay, ComGate), cash on delivery (dobírka) and Apple 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 Czech koruna (CZK).
Zone-based payment rules let you offer different options for the city centre than for outer parts of Olomouc.
- Twisto/Skip Pay
- Visa and Mastercard
- Cash on delivery (dobírka)
- Instant bank transfers (GoPay, ComGate)
- Apple Pay
Delivery and fulfilment from Olomouc
Your manufacturer and dealer portal can book shipments and share tracking with Česká pošta, Zásilkovna (Packeta), PPL, DPD and GLS, or route orders to your own riders and stores across Olomouc.
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 — Rail links — makes regional and national dispatch from Olomouc practical.
Rules Olomouc sellers must respect online
On tax: Czech VAT (DPH) is 21% standard and 12% reduced.
Customer data is handled with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy rules on cookies and marketing consent, enforced by ÚOOÚ in mind, and the storefront follows the EU Consumer Rights Directive (14-day withdrawal right), the Digital Services Act and, from June 2025, the European Accessibility Act for online shops and the Czech Civil Code consumer provisions.
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 Czech Republic.
Your own store alongside Alza.cz and Mall.cz
Many Olomouc sellers already list on Alza.cz, Mall.cz, Heureka, Rohlik, Notino and Allegro.cz. Those channels bring traffic, but they also take commission, control the customer relationship and change rules without notice.
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.
Who we build for in Olomouc
Popular online categories in the Czech Republic include electronics, groceries, cosmetics, fashion, home and sports. Local demand in Olomouc is shaped by universities and healthcare, so we often design catalogues and B2B ordering around those sectors. In Olomouc, we most often build manufacturer and distributor portals for:
Machinery and equipment manufacturers
For machinery and equipment manufacturers, we usually start with document library, then add ERP and production planning once orders are flowing.
Engineering component makers
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for engineering component makers in Olomouc, connected to the systems you already use.
Electrical and automation brands
Electrical and automation brands get enquiries and RFQs plus spares and service workflows tailored to their operations.
Building-material manufacturers
We map how building-material manufacturers sell today and digitise it end to end — from enquiry and order to payment, dispatch and repeat purchase.
Auto-parts companies
For auto-parts companies, we usually start with channel insight, then add warranty and service software once orders are flowing.
Importers and master distributors
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for importers and master distributors in Olomouc, connected to the systems you already use.
Add a mobile app for Olomouc customers
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.
Order alerts, offers and abandoned-cart reminders go out on Olomouc time (UTC+2), in Czech if you want.
- CRM and lead routing
- WhatsApp Business API
- Warranty and service software
- PIM and DAM for product data
- Dealer management systems
- E-invoicing and tax systems
- Logistics partners
- ERP and production planning
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 Olomouc
Value first, depth later. For a manufacturer and dealer portal serving Olomouc, the usual sequence looks like this:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Catalogue and enquiries | Technical catalogue, documents and RFQ capture with CRM routing. Configured for CZK, Visa and Mastercard and Česká pošta 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 Olomouc 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.

Olomouc 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.
