Merchants say this app is a strong choice for running wholesale and retail from one store, with a secure B2B portal that hides wholesale pricing from retail customers. They like the intuitive setup, quick-order forms, net terms checkout, and flexible pricing and shipping rules. Many call it their “best wholesale app,” praise the responsive, hands-on support, and note it’s reliable long term and keeps improving with useful updates.

I tried multiple different wholesale apps to find the functionality I needed. The majority of my business is still retail, but I wanted to be able to offer and grow the wholesale side.
I wanted an option where new wholesale customers could set up their wholesale account and order immediately (I knew that a 2-step process where I needed to approve or help set up accounts would result in some customers getting busy and not returning to order). I love that I can choose which products I offer wholesale. And the quick order form is perfect.
I recently had some questions, and Ann was incredibly patient with me, responding each time until I had it set up the way I wanted. Great customer service like that is priceless!
Forlife is a teapot and teaware design and manufacturing company, Up until recently, we had a retail Shopify website and a separate wholesale website, Our wholesale website was getting old, so we looked at all different ways to make a new better website. We found Wholesale Gorilla, it was so easy and gave us the control over our content that we wanted, and gave our wholesale customers an easy and seamless shopping experience. It let us combine our retail and wholesale into one site. The support and communication from WG was awesome , they answered all my questions and did an install on our live website at our convenience , so we didn't have to disrupt our customers
I Definitely Give them 5 Stars
Thx

We required an App that would allow us to move from what was a Wholesale-Only site to one which is now available to the public at retail prices. Wholesale Gorilla has satisfied all our requirements. Fixed-Price and Percentage-Off rules have been a godsend. The Quick Form and Minimum Order Quantity options are proving a huge hit for our existing Wholesale customers with an unexpected bonus. Our sales figures on the new Site are already much higher as a result.
Quite apart from the Gorilla Wholesale functionality, the support has exceptional. We've submitted many requests for assistance or tweaks of our theme (often in quick succession) and the response from the Gorilla team has always been rapid, with genuine concern. Thanks team!
Updated Review: After seeing my review on their site, their head of customer service contacted me directly from their personal email to make sure I got the answer I needed. Amazing customer service. I believe there was an issue of my emails never reaching their support team, so if you do not get a response within 24 hours, try sending them an email from a different address.
Review on 1/4/2023: The app works pretty well. However, there is an issue with tagging customers as "Wholesale" when Shopify wants to default the tag to "wholesale" and apparently the lowercase "w" throws off the app from recognizing the customer as wholesale. I have emailed support 4 separate times in the last 30 days and have yet to hear from them. Lack of support is really making me rethink which app I use.
I'm so sorry you aren't getting the information you need. It looks like we wrote back around 7:30pm EST last night, can you check your spam folder in case the message went there? Someone from our support team will also email you directly in case a spam filter is getting in the way for some reason. We will monitor this and make sure you get the help you need asap.
Clementine responded immediately to this review and communication channels are now open. Thank you for your quick response and apologies for the delay in updating the review. I downloaded this app 12 days ago and first emailed for help 10 days ago. I have emailed several times since then and haven't received a single reply apart from one email from 'Clementine' to say that you found my first emails in SPAM. I replied to her email several times and also independently. I don't know what else to do to get some help...? Everyone talks of speedy support but I can't find any evidence of that. This app looks like it will do the job for us and I don't want to delete it, and I really didn't want to go this route to get your attention but I was left with little choice
Can anyone get back to me?
Hi Jo,
I'm very sorry that your messages are still not reaching our team, and we appreciate you giving it one last try via this method. At this time, it looks like we've still only received a single message from you, which you sent our way on 2/18.
After reviewing your case, it looks like Clementine replied to that email after just a couple of hours had passed, and informed you that we hadn't received a single other message from your store; they're not in our Spam folder, or anywhere else -- they just outright aren't appearing in our inboxes or received history, so they've for some reason been completely unable to reach our Zendesk support system.
It looks like our best options moving forward would be to proceed as direct by support by replying directly to the original thread so that we could help out with anything needed, since that message had been successful in reaching us. We sent that message off on 2/18, but it doesn't look like we ever received a response from your side on that specific thread, and we've not received any other messages from your store elsewhere-- so it seems like we're right back to square one of your messages just not reaching us.
We are truly sorry for the trouble that you are experiencing with communication and are unsure why Zendesk is unable to intercept your messages.
We would still love to help out further however possible, and we're going to reach out via personal email right now to see if that has better luck in reaching you so that we can receive your replies and work anything out that is needed. Please keep an eye out for that message and be sure to check your spam folders; you won't have received any correspondence from this email address as of yet, so it very well could end up in your spam or 'trash' folders.
Also, we will be monitoring the review as the main method of communication for the time being; therefore, please update your review in a few hours if you don't see that message come through from our team letting us know that it didn't reach you, that way we can know to try a different contact method (we will check your post for an update around 3 PM EST). If you do receive that message without issue, please respond to it directly (not via a new email -- just send a 'reply' to that specific email) and we will continue to help out from there, hopefully with less hiccups in receiving your messages and getting help over to you. Thank you very much for working through this with us, and we look forward to assisting further very soon!

I was looking for a wholesale app that is able to deal with European VAT Laws and wow ... I am absolutely fond of the support! It is absolutely OUTSTANDING! This is also why I decided to buy this app, although they are only in the development of a feature I would love too ... Discount x requires you to buy amount y of a product. For sure also this feature will be implemented soon and they gave me great advice on how to work around until then! I just love the fast checkout form, that the wholesale customers are tagged by the app, set VAT exempt and the app gets it right so that customers from AT (where I am located) must pay VAT and all others from EU not. All of that saves so much time and gives the customer an easy shopping experience. Also that they can use net Terms payment ... Yes I am absolutely fond of Wholesale Gorilla app and THE TEAM! I wholeheartedly recommend them!
STOP WASTING TIME WITH OTHER WHOLESALE APPS AND DOWNLOAD WHOLESALE GORILLA!!
Our site resorted to opening a separate wholesale shopify store due to the poor quality of wholesale apps on the appstore. Managing a second store has become cumbersome so we have decided to revert to an app to manage our wholesale business.
I have installed and uninstalled an inappropriate amount of wholesale apps in search for one that meets the criteria our store is looking for and unfortunately tried this one last. I was hesitant to get my hopes up but FINALLY I found the one! Wholesale Gorilla is flexible and loaded with features and is very easy to set up once it is installed to your theme from their excellent customer service.
The developer is responsive and communicates clearly. I look forward to the future of my website with Wholesale Gorilla providing the best wholesale functionality I've seen in an app.
*****UPDATED REVIEW*****
After a month of difficulties, I finally found the problem, GROWAVE was messing up my checkout. Zachary quickly fixed it, and I mean FAST after the issue was identified and I am finally up and running and working. I love the customer registration and the quick sales form for this app. The quick sales form is easily customized and I am able to add only what categories I want to it. ************************************************************************************* Customers have not been able to checkout for a month because of a session expired notification. I have contacted customer support three times and am only given directions to provide to my customers. I tried to reset my cookies and it did not even fix the problem. My customers do not have time or want to change their cookie settings or anything else. I am having to manually type in orders and manually give wholesale discounts because no one can checkout through the app. Nothing has been done to fix the problem.
We've been running a Shopify store with a different wholesale app for about 5 years but recently migrated to a modern 2.0 theme with AJAX cart and the wholesale app we were using was no longer compatible. I attempted to install, configure and custom code-around another wholesale app (that says it's the only AJAX compatible wholesale app - it's not) and finally gave up on that. I then moved on to Wholesale Gorilla and wish I had done this much earlier. I had this app 100% configured in about 3 hours including some custom changes to our theme to have it better integrated. There were a couple of quirks that I ran into and emailed support and had a reasonable response in 12 hours. You can tell that the developers are truly coming from a B2B background as this app flows exactly as a Shopify merchant would want it to and it DOES NOT attempt to integrate with the cart which is where other apps fall apart. The fact that it has it's own cart and seamless net checkout with draft order creation is so refreshing and it works perfectly. The Quick Order form is also great right out of the box but I wish it allowed it a bit more configuration control. Thanks Wholesale Gorilla crew!
Thank you for the kind words! We really do come from a B2B background, so hearing that we have helped other merchants truly makes us happy. We have some exciting updates to the Quick Order form in the works, so stay tuned :-)
Best wholesale app out there. Great features, simple and easy, and the support team are really helpful.
