Contact your B2B eCommerce expertsWhy B2B Commerce Transformation Matters
The B2B commerce landscape is evolving rapidly. The UK market is on track to hit £1.1 trillion by 2033, and frankly, most businesses are still playing catch-up.
Your buyers have changed. They’ve got used to Amazon-style shopping at home, and now they expect the same slick experience when they’re spending company money. The statistics paint a clear picture: 73% of B2B buyers now expect to interact through multiple digital channels during their purchasing journey. Last year alone, UK B2B eCommerce sales jumped 10.5% to £1.77 trillion.
But here’s where it gets interesting. Only 28% of UK companies currently have what you’d call “good digital health.” That’s a massive opportunity if you’re willing to grab it.
Many wholesalers and manufacturers are stuck with systems that should have been retired years ago. Data scattered across different platforms, purchasing processes that frustrate customers, and integration nightmares that keep IT teams awake at night.
Your customers want B2C-style experiences, but they need B2B-level functionality. Custom pricing, account management, quote systems, and seamless connections to your existing ERP and CRM platforms. That’s where BigCommerce B2B Edition comes in, and why working with specialists like DeeperThanBlue makes all the difference.
What Makes BigCommerce B2B Edition Different?
BigCommerce B2B Edition is engineered to meet the complex demands of modern B2B commerce. It combines enterprise-grade functionality with the flexibility of an open SaaS platform – giving merchants the tools to deliver personalised, scalable, and integrated buying experiences.
Here’s what sets it apart from the crowd:
Open-Source Buyer Portal
Most B2B platforms lock you into their way of doing things. BigCommerce B2B’s Buyer Portal is completely open-source, which means you can build exactly what your customers need without breaking the bank. Want to completely customise the buying journey? Go for it. Need to match your brand perfectly? No problem.
Advanced Company Account Management
Real businesses are complicated. BigCommerce B2B can handle that:
- Multi-Company Hierarchies: Model your customers’ real-world organisational structures with up to five layers of parent-child relationships
- Role-Based Access: Assign permissions by role to ensure each user sees only what they need – from procurement officers to finance teams
- Corporate Credit Management: Centrally manage credit limits, payment terms, and approval workflows across multiple accounts
Configure-Price-Quote (CPQ) Engine
The CPQ engine is mobile-optimised and handles:
- Dynamic pricing that actually reflects your customer relationships
- Automated proposal generation that looks professional and on-brand
- Seamless integration with your existing ERP and CRM systems
- Quote creation on the go for field sales teams
You can tailor and extend this engine to match your quoting workflows and integrate it with your back-office systems.

BigCommerce Development AgencySolving Real B2B Challenges With BigCommerce B2B Edition
Legacy System Integration Complexity
Many B2B organisations struggle with fragmented technology stacks that don’t communicate effectively. Legacy ERP systems often lack modern APIs, creating data silos that hinder real-time inventory management and customer service. Nearly half of marketers (44%) struggle with fragmented data across multiple databases, leading to inefficient processes and missed opportunities.
Account-Based Pricing and Customer Management
B2B pricing is complicated. You’ve got contract-based pricing, volume discounts, customer-specific terms, and probably a few handshake deals that nobody documented properly. Traditional eCommerce platforms just can’t handle this complexity, forcing you to rely on manual processes that don’t scale.
Complex Procurement Processes
B2B sales cycles involve multiple stakeholders, approval workflows, and detailed quoting processes. You need platforms that can handle requisition lists, purchase orders, and multi-level approval systems whilst maintaining a streamlined user experience.
Digital Transformation Resistance
With 85% of enterprise decision-makers facing a two-year window to advance their digital transformation, many organisations are struggling with change management and the technical complexity of modernising their commerce infrastructure. It’s not just about the technology—it’s about getting people on board.
