The B2B eCommerce industry is experiencing unprecedented change. With modern platforms like Shopify B2B eCommerce gaining traction, expectations around speed, scalability, and integration have reached a new level. For suppliers, the challenge is no longer just about choosing the right commerce platform—it’s about connecting that platform efficiently with buyer procurement systems.
Shopify’s expansion into B2B validates what TradeCentric has long championed: the future of digital trade depends on eliminating friction, enhancing real-time connectivity, and replicating the convenience of B2C commerce in B2B environments.
Platform Proliferation Without True Integration
Suppliers today face a wide array of eCommerce options including Magento, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, BigCommerce, OroCommerce, and now Shopify B2B. While these platforms offer powerful capabilities for digital storefronts, integrating seamlessly with enterprise procurement and ERP systems can still present challenges.
The true differentiator is not the eCommerce storefront itself—it is how well that storefront can connect with buyer-side platforms like SAP Ariba, Coupa, Oracle, and JAGGAER.
Where TradeCentric Adds Value
TradeCentric is not in the business of replacing eCommerce platforms. Instead, we empower them. As a platform-agnostic integration provider, we enable features like PunchOut catalogs, Purchase Order Automation, Invoicing, and real-time connectivity with more than 150 eProcurement and ERP systems.
When a high-velocity platform like Shopify enters the B2B market, it opens doors for growth, but it also creates complex integration needs. This is where TradeCentric plays a pivotal role.
