The case for a manufacturer and dealer portal in Salto
Salto is a department capital city in salto, uruguay, home to about 113,000 people, and one of the markets in Uruguay where we build manufacturer and distributor portals.
North-western city on the Uruguay river — a business base that increasingly wants to sell online rather than through calls, messages and spreadsheets.
Uruguay is one of Latin America's most digitally advanced and stable markets, with EU-adequate data protection. It is a good test market for the Southern Cone.
For a business in Salto, 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.
Local details we build into every Salto project
A store that works in Salto respects local habits as well as local law. These are the details we configure first.
Currency and pricing
The store speaks Uruguayan peso: UYU amounts from product page to invoice, so Salto buyers never convert in their heads.
Language and content
Storefront copy, product pages and emails can run in Spanish, with local date and number formats.
Local trust signals
We add the payment logos, courier names and policy pages shoppers in Salto recognise: Visa, Mastercard and OCA cards and Mercado Pago and delivery through Correo Uruguayo.
Domain, phone and contact
Using .uy where it suits you signals a local business to shoppers and search engines. Click-to-call and WhatsApp buttons use the +598 calling code so customers reach you without dialling errors.
A manufacturer and dealer portal built around your Salto business
If you run a business in Salto 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 Uruguay — electronics, fashion, home 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.
What your manufacturer and dealer portal includes
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. Pages, search filters and wording are tuned to how people in Salto look for products, in Spanish if your audience needs it.
Document library
Datasheets, manuals, CAD drawings, certificates and price lists with public, registered or partner-only access. Bulk import and sync tools mean the Salto team never re-keys stock, prices or descriptions by hand.
Enquiries and RFQs
Project enquiries, quotation requests, lead routing to the right region and status tracking. Payment steps are built around Visa, Mastercard and OCA cards, Mercado Pago and Abitab and Redpagos cash, the options shoppers here already trust.
Partner portal
Dealer and distributor sign-in, territory-based catalogues, protected pricing, schemes and targets. Shipping rules can use Correo Uruguayo, DAC and UES as well as your own delivery staff in Salto.
Spares and service
Spare-part lookup by model or serial number, accessories, warranty registration and service requests. Multiple stock points in Uruguay are supported, so a Salto order ships from the nearest one.
Channel insight
Dashboards for partner orders, secondary sales, product interest and regional demand. Reports show which products, customers and areas of Salto drive revenue.
How Salto customers pay online
A store that serves Salto should let customers pay the way they do offline: Visa, Mastercard and OCA cards, Mercado Pago, Abitab and Redpagos cash and bank transfer.
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 Uruguayan peso (UYU).
- Bank transfer
- Prex
- Visa, Mastercard and OCA cards
- Abitab and Redpagos cash
- Cash on delivery
- Mercado Pago
Fulfilment options for Salto orders
Your manufacturer and dealer portal can book shipments and share tracking with Correo Uruguayo, DAC, UES, Mercado Envíos and PedidosYa, or route orders to your own riders and stores across Salto.
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.
Tax, invoicing and compliance in Uruguay
Uruguayan IVA is 22% standard (10% reduced), and DGI electronic receipts (CFE) are mandatory.
Customer data is handled with Law 18,331 on Personal Data Protection, recognised by the EU as adequate in mind, and the storefront follows Consumer Relations Law No. 17,250.
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 Salto.
Your own store alongside Mercado Libre and Tienda Inglesa
Mercado Libre, Tienda Inglesa and Disco are where many shoppers in Salto start, which is why sellers list there. The trade-off is commission, limited branding and rules the platform can change overnight.
NNT Mart gives you a channel you own: your domain, your customer list, your pricing and your brand. Where it helps, we connect product feeds and orders from marketplaces so stock stays in sync and your team works from one dashboard.
Industries in Salto we work with
Popular online categories in Uruguay include electronics, fashion, home, groceries, beauty and sports. North-western city on the Uruguay river — which shapes what local businesses need online. In Salto, we most often build manufacturer and distributor portals for:

For auto-parts companies, we usually start with channel insight, then add warranty and service software once orders are flowing.
Importers and master distributors

Android and iOS apps for your Salto business
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 Salto time (UTC−3), in Spanish if you want.
- E-invoicing and tax systems
- ERP and production planning
- Dealer management systems
- WhatsApp Business API
- PIM and DAM for product data
- Logistics partners
- Warranty and service software
- CRM and lead routing
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 Salto
We launch the journeys that create value first, then add depth. A typical roadmap for a manufacturer and dealer portal in Salto:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Catalogue and enquiries | Technical catalogue, documents and RFQ capture with CRM routing. Configured for UYU, Visa, Mastercard and OCA cards and Correo Uruguayo 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 Salto 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 Salto results are visible, not promised.
