The Operational Complexity Shopify Plus Handles 

Manufacturing commerce isn’t complicated because of volume — it’s complicated because of layered rules, relationships, and legacy systems that have to work in concert. 

B2B and DTC Coexisting Safely

Running wholesale and direct-to-consumer without channel conflict means territory rules, product segmentation, and pricing visibility controls that have to be architectural — not patched in later. 

Thousands of SKUs with Variant Matrices

Configurable products, BOMs, accessory dependencies, and restricted SKUs visible only to certain account types require structured catalog architecture, not ad-hoc product management. 

Multi-Tier Pricing & Contract Logic 

Account-specific contract prices, volume tier breaks, dealer-protected minimums, and promotional overrides that vary by customer segment — all needing to resolve in real time at checkout. 

ERP as the Source of Truth 

Customer accounts, credit limits, inventory levels, and contract prices all live in your ERP. Every order placed in Shopify has to push back — and every ERP update has to surface immediately. 

EDI, PO Workflows & RMA Management 

B2B buyers expect purchase order support, net payment terms, and structured returns with ERP-pushed RMA numbers — not the guest-checkout experience of a consumer store.

Multi-User Buying & Approval Chains

Large accounts order through several buyers with different spending limits and sign-off requirements — approval routing and role-based purchasing permissions that generic B2B storefronts don’t support natively.

Most Shopify agencies can’t navigate this complexity. 

i95Dev builds the ERP integration layer, the pricing engine, and the B2B portal — not just the storefront.

How Manufacturers Use Shopify Plus 

The same platform, deployed across very different manufacturing scenarios — because the underlying architecture is flexible enough to meet you where you are. 

I95Dev ServicePage CloudServices Icon Monitoring

Success Stories Icon 1000

Launch Direct-to-Consumer Without Disrupting Dealers 

Open a consumer storefront on the same catalog and inventory as your B2B portal — with channel-safe pricing, territory restrictions, and dealer-protected SKUs enforced at the platform level. 

Fractional Growth Expert Icon Business Facing Operational Challenges

Replace Legacy or Fragmented Platforms 

Consolidate multiple storefronts, spreadsheet-based ordering, or aging Magento/custom builds onto a single Shopify Plus platform — reducing catalog duplication, split inventory, and double operations overhead.

ECommerce Maintenance And Support Services Icon Onsite And Offsite Support

Make Your ERP Commerce-Ready 

Turn your ERP into a live commerce engine — surfacing real-time pricing, contract terms, stock levels, and customer accounts directly into the Shopify storefront without manual data entry or batch sync delays. 

Fractional Solution Architect Icon Vendor Management

Give Sales Reps a Digital Tool 

Deploy a rep-assisted ordering interface where your sales team can place orders on behalf of accounts, view ERP pricing, check live inventory, and track order status — reducing errors and order cycle time.

Expand to New Markets & Channels 

Use Shopify Plus’s multi-storefront and multi-currency infrastructure to enter new geographies or market segments — with localized pricing, tax rules, and language support managed from one back end.

What Manufacturers Need to Know About ERP Integration 

ERP integration is not a feature — it’s the infrastructure. Getting it right determines whether your commerce platform runs smoothly or creates more operational drag than it solves. 

ERPs We Integrate With 

SAP S/4HANA & SAP B1: Full bi-directional sync for enterprise manufacturers on SAP ECC and S/4HANA 
Oracle NetSuite: Real-time inventory, pricing, and order sync for mid-market manufacturers

Why Shopify Plus Wins for Manufacturing Commerce 

Compared to legacy enterprise platforms, Shopify Plus delivers more manufacturing-specific capability at a fraction of the total cost of ownership — when implemented by the right partner. 

Legacy Enterprise Platforms 

12–24 month implementation timelines with multi-million dollar professional services
B2B features require expensive add-ons, custom development, or third-party middleware
Separate B2B and DTC platforms create duplicated catalogs, split inventory, and double overhead
On-premise or private cloud infrastructure requires dedicated DevOps and costly maintenance
Major version upgrades are multi-month projects that freeze new feature development
High licensing, hosting, and customization costs make TCO 3–5× higher over five years

Shopify Plus — with i95Dev 

90-day avg. deployment from kickoff to go-live, including ERP integration and B2B portal
Native B2B company accounts, custom pricing, net terms, and PO workflows — no middleware
B2B and DTC on a single catalog, inventory pool, and order management layer
99.99% uptime, auto-scaling for peak order periods — zero infrastructure management
Ongoing platform updates from Shopify at no additional cost — no upgrade projects
Total cost of ownership 60–70% lower than SAP Commerce or custom-built platforms
