About us

B2B trade deserves better software

We started Merkiz because we watched brilliant trading companies lose deals to fax machines, spreadsheets and webshop projects that never shipped.

Mission

Make launching a B2B store as easy as renting an office

Consumer e-commerce got two decades of relentless polish, while business buyers were left with PDF price lists and order forms. Our mission is to close that gap: every wholesaler, distributor and manufacturer should be able to open a world-class online store in a day — without a development team, without a consulting project, without risk.

  • Speed as respect

    Your time is the scarcest resource in trade. Everything we ship must make our customers faster — launch faster, sell faster, get answers faster.

  • Boring reliability

    B2B orders are payroll and livelihoods. We prize uptime, data accuracy and predictability over shiny features, every single time.

  • Customer proximity

    Every Merkiz engineer spends time each quarter with real customers — in warehouses, at order desks, on sales calls. We build what we've seen, not what we've imagined.

Team

Two decades of craft, one focus

Our team brings 20+ years of combined experience across web development, server management, UX and interface design, front-end performance, B2B sales, SEO, electronic data interchange (EDI), and ERP integrations. That depth is why Merkiz stores launch in days, stay fast under load, and connect cleanly to the systems your trade already runs on.
