Success story

Real-time B2B ordering & product management

The Client

A leading South African motor spares wholesaler serving a nationwide dealer network.

The Challenge

Managing a fast-moving catalogue of 15,000+ SKUs across Sales and Warehouse teams was slow and error-prone. Product additions and spec amendments happened outside WordPress, then had to be re-entered, delaying updates. Dealers couldn't see real-time availability or tiered pricing, which meant phone calls, manual checks, and missed sales opportunities.

The Solution

We built a custom WordPress backend and Syspro integration that turned their site into a live B2B platform:

WordPress Product Console: Role-based tools for Sales and Warehouse to add new products, update specs, and manage amendments directly in WordPress—complete with audit trails and approval workflows.
Syspro Data Bridge: Secure, two-way sync to surface real-time stock availability, tiered pricing, and order placement logic on the website.
Dealer Portal: Authenticated access for the distribution network to view current availability and their negotiated pricing, then place orders immediately—no phone tag.

Results

Real-time inventory & pricing online for the entire dealer network
Faster product onboarding—new items and spec changes go live immediately from within WordPress
Fewer manual steps and duplicate entry across Sales and Warehouse
Higher order accuracy with availability-aware checkout and tiered pricing applied automatically
Happier dealers thanks to self-serve access in a secure portal

"This integration gave us a single source of truth and let dealers self-serve. Our teams move faster, and orders are cleaner."
