The Problem

4. No Unified B2B and B2C Storefront

Competitor Landscape

  • Shogun Frontend
  • Nacelle
  • Vue Storefront
  • Fabric Commerce Platform
  • Commercetools custom builds

Must-Have Features for MVP

âś“ Audience detection (login, company, geo, referral) at edge
âś“ Feature flags to toggle B2B functions (MOQ, net terms, PO, quotes)
âś“ Catalog/pricing segmentation with fallback rules
✓ Unified checkout with segment‑aware validation and payment options
âś“ SEO safety (canonicals, hreflang, robots) for blended content
âś“ Content variant management and preview per segment
âś“ Segmented analytics and attribution
âś“ Rollout/rollback by segment

⚠️ Potential Challenges

  • SEO duplication and canonical strategy
  • Platform constraints around single vs multi‑checkout
  • Consistent personalization at the edge and cache coherence
  • Complex catalog/pricing segmentation rules
  • Governance over who can change segment config

Risk Level: Low

🎯 Keys to Success

  • Single codebase and domain for both audiences within 60–90 days
  • LCP <2s for both segments via edge caching
  • Reduced ops overhead (catalog/content managed once)
  • No SEO traffic loss post‑consolidation
