The case for a manufacturer and dealer portal in Sibiu
Sibiu is a commercial centre in Romania home to about 134,000 people, and one of the places where we build manufacturer and distributor portals for local businesses.
Key sectors include automotive and tourism, with business districts such as the city centre and industrial zones.
Logistics are supported by Sibiu Airport, which matters when you promise customers fast delivery.
Romania has SMEs make up 99% of all businesses in the European Union (European Commission). Romania's online market is growing fast, but cash on delivery is still widely used, so flexible payment rules are essential. easybox lockers make delivery cheaper outside big cities.
Shoppers and trade buyers in Sibiu already compare options on their phones; a manufacturer and dealer portal that loads fast, shows accurate stock and accepts cash on delivery (ramburs) turns that research into orders.
Localised for Sibiu, not translated into it
A store that works in Sibiu respects local habits as well as local law. These are the details we configure first.
Currency and pricing
The store speaks Romanian leu: RON amounts from product page to invoice, so Sibiu buyers never convert in their heads.
Language and content
We localise pages, emails and notifications into Romanian where your audience needs it.
Local trust signals
Badges for cash on delivery (ramburs) and Visa and Mastercard, Fan Courier delivery and clear return terms reassure first-time buyers in Sibiu.
Domain, phone and contact
Using .ro where it suits you signals a local business to shoppers and search engines. Click-to-call and WhatsApp buttons use the +40 calling code so customers reach you without dialling errors.
Talent and partners nearby
Sibiu draws on Lucian Blaga University, which means plenty of local staff, interns and technology partners to run the store after launch.
Designed to your requirements, not a template
We do not hand Sibiu 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.
In Sibiu we typically work with machinery and equipment manufacturers, engineering component makers, electrical and automation brands and building-material manufacturers, and with sellers in categories such as electronics, fashion, home and DIY and beauty that have strong online demand in Romania.
We start with a requirements meeting, show you a working demo within 24 hours, and only then propose scope, milestones and budget.
What your manufacturer and dealer portal includes
Nothing here is fixed: modules are switched on, reshaped or built from scratch around how your Sibiu business sells.
Technical catalogue
Product families, models, variants, specification tables, comparison and application or industry filters. Revenue reports by product, repeat buyer and delivery area of Sibiu guide stock and marketing decisions.
Document library
Datasheets, manuals, CAD drawings, certificates and price lists with public, registered or partner-only access. Storefront language, imagery and navigation are set up for Sibiu shoppers and available in Romanian.
Enquiries and RFQs
Project enquiries, quotation requests, lead routing to the right region and status tracking. Bulk import and sync tools mean the Sibiu team never re-keys stock, prices or descriptions by hand.
Partner portal
Dealer and distributor sign-in, territory-based catalogues, protected pricing, schemes and targets. Payment steps are built around cash on delivery (ramburs), Visa and Mastercard and PayPal, 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 Fan Courier, Sameday easybox and Cargus as well as your own delivery staff in Sibiu.
Channel insight
Dashboards for partner orders, secondary sales, product interest and regional demand. Multiple stock points in Romania are supported, so a Sibiu order ships from the nearest one.
Getting paid online in Sibiu
A store that serves Sibiu should let customers pay the way they do offline: cash on delivery (ramburs), Visa and Mastercard, PayPal and Google Pay and Apple Pay.
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 Romanian leu (RON).
Business buyers around the city centre often want invoices or bank transfer, while consumers lean on cash on delivery (ramburs). We support both flows.
- PayPal
- Cash on delivery (ramburs)
- TBI Bank instalments
- Visa and Mastercard
- Google Pay and Apple Pay
Delivery and fulfilment from Sibiu
Your manufacturer and dealer portal can book shipments and share tracking with Fan Courier, Sameday easybox, Cargus, DPD Romania and Poșta Română, or route orders to your own riders and stores across Sibiu.
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.
Connectivity in the area — Sibiu Airport — makes regional and national dispatch from Sibiu practical.
Selling online legally in Romania
For Sibiu sellers, tax first: Romanian VAT (TVA) is 21% standard with an 11% reduced rate since August 2025, and B2B e-invoicing through RO e-Factura is mandatory.
Two frameworks shape the build: the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy rules on cookies and marketing consent, enforced by ANSPDCP, and 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 Government Emergency Ordinance 34/2014 on consumer 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 in Romania.
Your own store alongside eMAG and OLX
EMAG, OLX and Altex are where many shoppers in Sibiu 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.
Who we build for in Sibiu
Popular online categories in Romania include electronics, fashion, home and DIY, beauty, auto parts and toys. Local demand in Sibiu is shaped by automotive and tourism, so we often design catalogues and B2B ordering around those sectors. In Sibiu, we most often build manufacturer and distributor portals for:
Machinery and equipment manufacturers
We map how machinery and equipment manufacturers sell today and digitise it end to end — from enquiry and order to payment, dispatch and repeat purchase.
Engineering component makers
For engineering component makers, we usually start with enquiries and RFQs, then add CRM and lead routing once orders are flowing.
Electrical and automation brands
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for electrical and automation brands in Sibiu, connected to the systems you already use.
Building-material manufacturers
Building-material manufacturers get partner portal plus channel insight workflows tailored to their operations.
Auto-parts companies
We map how auto-parts companies sell today and digitise it end to end — from enquiry and order to payment, dispatch and repeat purchase.
Importers and master distributors
For importers and master distributors, we usually start with technical catalogue, then add logistics partners once orders are flowing.
Add a mobile app for Sibiu customers
In Sibiu, 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.
One backend serves the website and the apps, and the apps ship under your own Google Play and App Store accounts — so what you change once appears everywhere.
Order alerts, offers and abandoned-cart reminders go out on Sibiu time (UTC+3), in Romanian if you want.
- E-invoicing and tax systems
- Dealer management systems
- PIM and DAM for product data
- WhatsApp Business API
- ERP and production planning
- Warranty and service software
- CRM and lead routing
- Logistics partners
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 Sibiu
Value first, depth later. For a manufacturer and dealer portal serving Sibiu, the usual sequence looks like this:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Catalogue and enquiries | Technical catalogue, documents and RFQ capture with CRM routing. Configured for RON, cash on delivery (ramburs) and Fan Courier 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 Sibiu customers actually buy. |
We track qualified enquiries per month, quote-to-order conversion, dealer portal adoption, secondary-sales visibility, spare-part order accuracy and time to answer technical queries on a live dashboard from day one, so Sibiu results are visible, not promised.
Working with our team from Sibiu
Our team covers UTC+3 — 2h 30m behind India (IST) — through three 8-hour shifts, so a Sibiu client always reaches someone during the local working day.
We work in English and can deliver storefront content in Romanian. NDAs are signed on request, and you get a named project lead plus direct access to the engineers building your manufacturer and dealer portal.
Our head office is in Chhapi, Gujarat, with an office in Hyderabad and representation in Nigeria, South Africa, Ethiopia and Zambia; Sibiu clients are served remotely with on-site workshops when the project needs them.
