Will OpenCart solve my problem?

Hi

Basically we want to build a ecommerce type platform that will:

1. Allow basic shopping basket experience for general public visitors (very standard stuff);

2. create a account login area where wholesalers and independent shop owners can go and get a completely different pricing, and where we offer ddp and cnf to wherever they are in the world.

I have used WP Woo commerce before but I'm not sure it will meet my needs, and I've been recommended OpenCart.

Will and how would it manage what we need?

You have been informed incorrectly, it will not.
At least, not, as it comes.

Check here to find at least in part, what OC can do.

But it will have it's limits...
Good Luck

Wholesale customers can be put in a 'wholesale' customer group and then given discount pricing with the ability to have quantity break pricing.

This does realistically require you to either create the wholesale customers (they phone - you type in their deatails in the admin) or for them to contact you after creating the account so that you can assign them to your 'wholesale' group. Alternatively, you can display the customer groups on the registration page for the customer to select, simply set the 'Wholesale' group to 'Approve new customers' so you can veryfy their details before they can log on to see/buy the discount pricing.

I don't know what ddp and cnf are, I presume shipping options - it does fall down a little bit there but can be overcome. i have a dropship extension that deals with it.
