2.4.2 p1 B2B + B2C multi-site

[mneuschulz]

Hi there,

I have an existing B2C store running on Magento 2.4.2 p1. I want to add a new B2B website using the same backend.

I have setup the new website,, store and store views correctly along with server settings so I can access the stores from the front end.

We have an existing products in the B2C store. I want a different public catalog for the new B2B shop. After enabling the B2B features for the B2B shop I am given the option to create a new public shared catalog, but if I do that it overwrites the existing B2C catalog and any changes made affect both the existing B2C site and the new B2B. It seems I am only able to have one public shared catalog.

How can I show different products in two different websites for non-logged in users? 

I have working shared catalogs for B2B groups fine.but it's the non-logged in users I want to customise what products they see.

Thanks

Hello @mneuschulz 

By default, Magento 2 supports a single shared catalog per installation. However, you can create multiple shared catalogs by using a third-party extension, such as the Magento 2 Multiple Shared Catalogs extension.

Once you have installed the extension, you can create a new shared catalog specifically for the B2B website and assign the necessary products to it. This way, the B2C shared catalog will remain unaffected.

Alternatively, you can use Magento 2's built-in website and store view hierarchy to manage different product sets for different websites. You can create a new website for your B2B store and assign a different set of products to that website. Then, configure the necessary server settings so that users can access both stores from the front-end.

To configure the product sets for the different websites, go to Products > Catalog in the Magento admin panel, select the product you want to assign to a specific website, and then select the Websites tab. From there, you can select the website(s) where the product should be visible.

Make sure that the products assigned to the B2B website are not included in the B2C store's shared catalog. This way, non-logged-in users will see only the products assigned to the B2C store and not the ones assigned to the B2B store.
