Custom Industrial Supplier BigCommerce Theme
Contract pricing, tax-exempt accounts and spec filters for suppliers
Half the accounts at an industrial supply house come with an exemption certificate on file, a contract price negotiated last spring and a buyer who expects both to show up without a phone call. BigCommerce handles that well, with customer groups and price lists for contract accounts, tax-exempt customer settings and bulk imports that load tens of thousands of SKUs from your existing data. Foxco builds a custom industrial supplier BigCommerce theme with brand pages, faceted filters for thread size and material, a quick reorder page for repeat buyers and an account application for new plants. It's $999 installed on your BigCommerce store and configured, which is less than a lot of plants spend on gloves in a quarter.

Industrial Supplier theme questions
Is the theme custom or something off the shelf?
Custom. Foxco starts from its BigCommerce framework for industrial suppliers and builds it out with your brand, your product lines and the account pages buyers need.
How long before we're taking orders?
Expect 7-10 days once we have your logo, photos and content. Rush jobs depend on our bandwidth.
Can tax-exempt accounts check out without sales tax?
BigCommerce lets you mark customer accounts as tax exempt and we set the account pages up around that. Certificate collection and validation through BigCommerce apps can be added as a custom project.
Can we import our catalog from our current system?
Yes. BigCommerce takes bulk product imports, including custom fields and brand assignments, so a large catalog goes in from a spreadsheet. Mapping a messy distributor feed first can be a custom project. Your BigCommerce plan and any paid apps are billed by BigCommerce and the app makers, separate from the $999.
A buyer who has to call to confirm their contract price is one bad week away from trying the supply house across the highway. The theme makes the negotiated number, the exemption status and the reorder all show up the moment they sign in.
Finding the part by its specs
Custom fields carry thread size, material, grade, voltage or pressure rating; faceted filters turn them into a sidebar a maintenance tech can click through on a phone. Brand pages group every line you carry under its manufacturer, so the buyer loyal to one bearing brand gets straight to it without scrolling through competitors.
Accounts that behave like accounts
Plants, contractors and fleet shops each sit in a customer group with a price list that matches the deal they signed. Tax-exempt accounts are flagged in BigCommerce, so checkout skips the sales tax line. A reorder page pulls up past orders, letting a purchasing manager repeat last month's gloves, fasteners and filters in a couple of clicks.
Room for the next plant
Foxco builds an account application page that asks for company details, buying contacts and exemption paperwork, so you can approve a new customer and place them in the right group the same day. Each product shows pickup and delivery details near the cart button, which answers the question every urgent buyer asks first.
