Shop Electric is a professional e-commerce platform built entirely from scratch to serve the niche market of electrical materials and KNX smart home systems in Romania. As an authorized distributor for F-tronic, the platform features a deep product catalog spanning over 12 main categories with dozens of subcategories, dual-currency pricing (RON and EUR), real-time stock management, and a unique interactive category map for rapid product discovery. The site was developed using custom PHP, delivering a fast, tailored experience that generic e-commerce platforms cannot match.
The platform features an extensive hierarchical category system with 12+ main categories and up to 50 subcategories each. A standout feature is the full-screen interactive category map accessible via a pulsing quick-access button, providing an intuitive tree navigation for professionals to find products fast. Each category includes detailed SEO info popups with rich descriptions.
Secure payment processing through PayPal and BT Pay (Banca Transilvania), supporting both card transactions and bank transfers. Shipping is fully integrated with Fan Courier for automated AWB generation, real-time tracking, and efficient logistics across Romania. Orders are confirmed by phone for an added layer of trust.
Dual-currency display (RON and EUR) on every product for professionals comparing EU pricing. Dedicated technical guides and downloadable datasheets for informed purchasing decisions. Real stock transparency with live availability indicators, promotional bundles, and a newsletter system for product updates and special offers.
The platform was built with a focus on performance and professional user experience. It features Google Tag Manager integration for comprehensive analytics, structured data markup for enhanced search engine visibility, and a fully responsive design optimized for both desktop and mobile use. The admin panel provides complete control over products, categories, pricing, stock levels, orders, and promotional campaigns.
As an extension of the Shop Electric ecosystem, we developed 288.ro — a dedicated B2B wholesale distribution platform for electrical materials. While Shop Electric serves both retail and professional customers, 288.ro is exclusively designed for businesses: electricians, construction companies, and resellers. The platform features gated pricing visible only to verified companies, dropshipping capabilities for resellers, and rapid stock fulfillment. Built on the same technological foundation, 288.ro acts as the wholesale backbone that powers the distribution network behind Shop Electric.
The platform is dedicated exclusively to companies. Wholesale pricing is only visible after login and business verification, ensuring competitive rates are reserved for verified professional customers. User registration requires company details (CUI) for validation.
288.ro offers a complete dropshipping service, allowing other e-commerce businesses to sell electrical products without holding inventory. Orders are fulfilled directly from 288.ro's rapid stock, shipped to end customers under the reseller's branding, enabling scalable business growth.
Emphasis on fast product availability with a dedicated rapid stock system. The platform features a complete order tracking system, customer dashboard with saved addresses, order history, wishlists, and a bilingual interface (Romanian and English) for international business operations.
