Guan Yiac Hardware

Guan Yiac Hardware is a wholesale, retail, and manufacturing company in Binondo, Manila, supplying industrial hoses, conveyor components, and power transmission products to Philippine industry. We built its Shopify store on a customized Dawn theme around how industrial buyers shop: spec-based hose filters, side-by-side product comparison, and a request-a-quote flow with CAD file uploads in place of add to cart, with identixweb's wholesale app installed for B2B pricing.

Project story

The Challenge

An industrial catalog that sells on quotes, not carts

Guan Yiac's buyers choose parts by technical specification and usually need a price for bulk or custom orders, so the store had to help them find, compare, and request a quote for the right product.

1Selling industrial hoses, conveyor components, and power transmission parts that are priced per quote rather than at a fixed cart price
2Helping buyers narrow down hoses by industry, application, diameter, material, pressure, and temperature
3Letting engineers compare similar products side by side before asking for a price
4Collecting the company and contact details the sales team needs with every quote request
5Taking customization requests with drawings and CAD files attached
6Presenting detailed technical specifications for each product in a clear, consistent layout
7Serving wholesale buyers alongside retail customers on one storefront

Our Approach

A quote-led store shaped around technical buying

We built the store on a customized Dawn theme, keeping product specifications in metafields and using them to drive filtering, comparison, and quoting.

Customized Dawn Theme
Dawn 15.4.1 extended with custom sections for a brand bar, a shop-by-category grid, a featured catalogue slider, a why-choose-us block, the industries served, and an industrial knowledge hub.
Request a Quote
Request Quote replaces add to cart on product pages and in a sticky product bar, adding the chosen variant to a quote list and opening a quote form that shows each SKU with its estimated review time.
Spec-Driven Hose Finder
A filter panel on the Industrial Hose collection for industry, application field, diameter, material, structure, and certification, with range sliders for working pressure, vacuum capacity, and temperature, plus quick tags for common hose types.
Side-by-Side Comparison
A compare mode on collection pages that lines up to three products by durability, brand, material, length, diameters, pressure rating, temperature range, and application, with one Request Quote for all of them.
Built for Trade Buyers
identixweb's wholesale app installed for B2B pricing, and a quote form that takes company details plus customization notes with DWG, STEP, DXF, PDF, or image uploads.
