Wholesale Pro & B2B for WooCommerce — is a comprehensive toolkit designed to bridge the gap between standard e-commerce and the complex needs of a business-to-business sales model. It empowers store owners to cater specifically to wholesale customers by offering features that are not available in a standard WooCommerce setup. Whether you need to hide prices from guest users, create tiered pricing structures, or manage bulk orders, this plugin provides the robust functionality required for a professional B2B operation.
With this plugin, you can easily create multiple wholesale user roles, each with its own unique pricing, discounts, and product visibility rules. The registration form builder allows you to vet and approve new wholesale customers, ensuring that only qualified businesses gain access to your B2B pricing. This level of control is crucial for maintaining separate retail and wholesale channels on a single WordPress installation, streamlining your administrative tasks and improving the user experience for all customer types.
Ultimately, Wholesale Pro & B2B for WooCommerce helps you automate your wholesale business, leading to increased efficiency and higher sales volumes. By offering features like minimum order quantities, tax exemptions, and quick order forms, you cater directly to the needs of business buyers. This targeted approach builds loyalty, encourages larger purchases, and positions your online store as a reliable supplier in the B2B marketplace.
Why is this important?
Managing a wholesale business on a retail-focused platform like WooCommerce can be chaotic. You risk alienating B2B clients with retail pricing, and manual order processing wastes countless hours. According to industry reports, over 70% of B2B buyers now expect a personalized, Amazon-like purchasing experience. Without the right tools, you can't provide tiered pricing, tax exemptions, or bulk order forms, leading to lost sales and frustrated customers. This plugin solves these critical issues by automating your B2B operations, which can increase average order value by up to 30% and significantly improve customer retention.

FAQ
Can I set different prices for the same product for different wholesale users?
Yes, absolutely. The core feature of this plugin is the ability to create multiple 'wholesale user roles' (e.g., Silver Wholesaler, Gold Wholesaler). For each role, you can set a unique discount percentage or a fixed price for individual products, product categories, or your entire store.
Is it possible to hide my wholesale store from the general public?
Yes, you can easily create a private store. The plugin allows you to restrict access so that only logged-in users with an approved wholesale role can see products and prices. Guest users can be redirected to a login page or shown a custom message.
How does the wholesale registration process work?
The plugin provides a customizable registration form where you can add extra fields, such as 'Company Name' or 'Tax ID'. You can set up the system to either automatically approve new registrations and assign them a default wholesale role, or you can hold all new applications for manual review and approval from the admin dashboard.
Does this plugin support variable products?
Yes, the Wholesale Pro & B2B plugin is fully compatible with WooCommerce variable products. You can set specific wholesale prices for each individual product variation, giving you complete control over your pricing strategy for complex products.
