B.e.s.t. Akyol Store App – B2B Ordering for Wholesale…

E-Commerce

The Challenge

Wholesale and day-to-day operations

Kiosks, beverage markets, gas stations, and hospitality businesses often reorder in recurring patterns: similar assortments, quick replenishment, and clear pricing—alongside phone, fax, or desktop B2B portals. On the move or in the stockroom, there is little patience for cumbersome menus: business users need fast article search, reliable availability cues, and ordering that fits daily operations without duplicate work. The wholesaler must also surface promotions and terms without turning the app into an unreadable list.

Technical requirements

A B2B store app must work on variable connectivity on site, scan barcodes reliably, and talk to a backend that understands articles, pricing, and customer context—with consistent UX on both iOS and Android. Errors in quantities, packs, or payment types are costly for trade; the UI must remain understandable for different roles—from branch managers to staff switching between customers and reorders. Security and traceable releases matter when assortments or promotions change frequently.

Our Solution

iOS and Android app for the ordering flow

For B.e.s.t. Akyol Handels GmbH we implemented a store app for iOS and Android that consolidates the B2B ordering flow: categories for beverages, confectionery, and packaging, barcode scanning for known SKUs, presentation of current offers, and flexible payment options within commercial processes. The app targets wholesale workflows—less storefront, more efficient replenishment and orientation in the assortment.

Delivery and quality

Development and QA are handled by our team in Leer/East Frisia—short communication paths with the client, traceable builds, and tests on common iPhones and Android devices in the field. Backend integration is structured so catalogue, promotion, or pricing changes can roll out incrementally without overloading the user interface.

Results

Benefits for business customers and the wholesaler

Business customers can trigger orders more flexibly on mobile—for example during stock checks, between deliveries, or at the shelf—without returning to a desktop PC first. For B.e.s.t. Akyol Handels GmbH the app remains a dependable channel alongside phone and traditional purchasing paths and supports wholesale revenue processes without hiding assortment complexity.

Reference for B2B and trade apps

The project shows how we deliver industry-aware mobile apps for wholesale: clear information architecture, barcode support, integration with existing logic, and a focus on robust everyday use—developed in Germany with maintainable, traceable ordering flows.

B2B ordering on the move

Scanner, catalogue, and commercial terms

In wholesale, speed matters: barcode capture, reliable master data, and traceable pricing must work even with weak signal in the stockroom. The app separates presentation from backend logic so promotions and assortment changes can roll out without store emergencies.

“A B2B app fails on wrong quantity or missing SKU—not on design alone.”

Business customers see offers and pack sizes in account context; error messages are worded so branch staff can react without an IT hotline.

Maintenance and releases

“Store updates are everyday trade—predictable releases prevent peak-season surprises.”

Development and support run from East Frisia with short paths to the client; regression tests on typical field devices secure day-to-day use.

Returns and special terms live in the backend; the app shows only prices and promotions released for the logged-in business account—a trust anchor in B2B trade.

Frequently asked questions about the B.e.s.t. Akyol Store app

Why is a B2B ordering app for wholesale more than a normal shop?

Because repeat orders, account-specific pricing, and product logic matter much more than classic D2C presentation. The project combines online shop creation with practical app development.

What role do integrations play in an app like this?

Pricing, availability, and orders have to fit existing trade processes. That is exactly why API integration and system integration are often decisive.

How do you design mobile UX for recurring orders?

Through fast product selection, clear quantity logic, and very short reorder paths. Good software development removes friction instead of moving it onto the phone.

What kinds of companies is this reference relevant for?

For wholesale businesses, B2B sales teams, and product platforms with a mobile ordering flow. Related topics sit in mobile commerce products and our mobile app references.
