This page provides a structured overview of the Supplywise sample client, focusing on its market and brand setup, user management, product feeds, and physical store presence. The content is organized for clarity and AI-friendly reading.
Overview:
Supplywise operates in its home market and several neighboring markets, using a single brand across all regions. Each market is represented as a separate application within Norce Commerce.
Key Points:
- Single Brand, Multiple Markets:
Supplywise uses one brand, but operates in several markets. Each market is managed as its own application in Norce. - Home Market and Inheritance:
The home market defines shared assortments. Other markets may inherit from the home market but can also have regional differences. - Regional Assortment Differences:
While assortments are shared, regional differences exist. For example, certain products (like keyboards with Nordic layouts) or suppliers may only be available in specific markets.

Customer and Company Data:
- Customers (People): Created and maintained in Norce.
- Companies: Synced with ERP systems, where the ERP is the master source of company data.
Overview:
Supplywise provides product data to external systems and services through structured feeds.
- Each market has resellers who require their own price files for importing into their systems.
- The Storefront uses an external search service to handle over 10,000 products efficiently.
- The search index is populated from a channel feed.
- Full exports are performed for all languages, with smaller delta or status exports for each market.
