Add the Quick order list section to your product page

The Quick order list section optimizes the shopping experience for bulk ordering and B2B customers.

If you use a free theme by Shopify, version 11.0.0 or later, then you can add the Quick order list section to your Products template, so that your business-to-business (B2B) customers can easily purchase multiple quantities across different product variants.

Steps:

  1. From your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Themes.

  2. Click Customize next to the theme that you want to edit.

  3. Click the Market drop-down menu at the top of the page, and then select a market that you want to customize.

  4. Click the Template drop-down menu.

  5. Click Products, and then select a product.

  6. In the Template section, click Add section > Quick order list.

  7. Click Save.

After you add the Quick order list section, consider hiding the following blocks, because all purchases will be completed using the quick order list:

  • Buy buttons block
  • Quantity selector block
  • Variant picker block
