Shopify B2B tools for developers

I did a check the other day and realised that more than half of the active Shopify projects we are working on at the moment are using Shopify B2B in some shape or form. I put this list together of all the different tools within the platform that we're using to set up successful B2B platforms. If this list doesn't show how good Shopify has become at managing all kinds of B2B requirements, nothing will: OOTB functionality - There's so much you can do without writing a line of code. Configuration > Customisation. Trade B2B theme - Ties in beautifully to all the under the hood capabilities of managing price lists, tiered pricing, thresholds etc. Contextualised publishing - Create different experiences for B2B and B2C customers all within the theme editor. APIs - Almost every B2B function in Shopify has a matching API to allow integrations to be automated. Shopify Flow - As per the APIs, so much business logic can be handled in here. App ecosystem - Still not heaps of B2B specific apps out there, but the opportunities for developers are massive and there will be lots of amazing apps with B2B specific functionality coming, I'm sure. ERP connectors - We're starting to see some of the big ERP native integrations add B2B modules to their middleware. Deposits at checkout - These types of improvements appear to be dropping every couple of weeks, solving different nuances of B2B operations. Hydrogen & Oxygen - Storefronts with truly custom requirements can spin up B2B headless storefronts in Shopify. Great option particularly if you have multiple storefronts. I'm sure I've missed some stuff too. I'm loving chatting with people about Shopify B2B and hearing what other people are doing with it too! Overdose. #b2b #ecommerce #shopify
