Corporate Websites and Multilingual Catalogues for Agricultural Exporters

For agricultural producers and exporters, a website is a sales tool that answers an overseas importer's questions in their own language: what does this company grow, when, to what standards, and how do I get a quote? This guide explains how produce growers, greenhouse operators, wholesale traders and exporters in Antalya should build their corporate site, with a multilingual product catalogue, certificates and a B2B quote form.

Why should an agricultural company invest in a website?

Antalya is one of Turkey's most important centres for greenhouse vegetables and fresh produce trading. For a long time, business ran on trade fairs, middlemen and personal contacts. Today a buyer looking for a new supplier starts online, and the first thing they do after hearing a company's name is look at its website.

For a buyer, the site is the first sign of how serious a company is. Up-to-date product information, real photos of greenhouses and the packing facility, valid certificates and a quote form that works in their language build trust before the first email. A company with no site, or one that has not been updated for years, falls down the list even if its produce is just as good.

Pages and features you need

Product catalogue

Each product, such as tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, aubergines or citrus, needs its own page with:

• Types and varieties.
• Size grades and class.
• Packaging options (box type, weight, pallet configuration).
• Harvest and shipping period.
• Real photos of the produce and packing.

The catalogue should be easy to update from the admin panel. Adding a product or marking one as out of season should take a few minutes at most.

Harvest and shipping calendar

Buyers plan months ahead. A simple table showing which product is available in which months quickly becomes one of the most visited pages and cuts down on "when will this be ready?" emails.

Certificates and documents

Showing the certificates you hold, such as GLOBALG.A.P., food safety management systems or organic certification, with certificate numbers and expiry dates speeds up a buyer's supplier approval process. Make the PDFs downloadable and remove expired ones. Avoid wording that implies a certificate you do not hold.

A multilingual B2B quote form

The quote form is the site's most important conversion point. It should include:

The form should work in every language, the panel should show which language each request came from, and replies should be fast. In export, an answer within 24 hours often matters as much as the quote itself.

Facilities and production

Real photos of greenhouses, orchards, cold storage and the packing house let buyers see the company without visiting. Describe production capacity, the team and quality control briefly and concretely.

From our work

The Turkish, English and Russian corporate site we built for Erten Tarım includes a product catalogue, a gallery, live wholesale market prices, a weather module and a quote request form. The company trades at Antalya's wholesale produce market and grows in its own greenhouses and orchards in Korkuteli, working with importers abroad as well as domestic buyers, which is why the site needed to present its range in several languages and collect quote requests.

Common mistakes

• Uploading the catalogue as a single PDF with no product information on the pages; it is hard to read on mobile and invisible to search engines.
• Leaving foreign language pages as machine translation. Mistakes in agricultural terminology make buyers question your professionalism.
• Keeping expired certificates on the site.
• Replying to quote requests days later.
• Using stock photos. Buyers want to see your greenhouses and your produce.
• Giving phone numbers only in local format; add the international format and a WhatsApp link.

Search visibility

Searches in agricultural export are usually in English and product focused, such as "tomato supplier Turkey" or "fresh peppers exporter Antalya". Write each product page's title and description separately in every language with searches like these in mind. Correct links between language versions (hreflang), a separate URL for each language and fast pages are the basics. Your Google Business Profile still matters for domestic buyers and site visits, so keep the address, phone number and hours current. We cover the fundamentals of a corporate site in our guide to what every corporate website needs.

What drives the cost

• Number of languages and translators who know agricultural terminology.
• Number of products and the catalogue structure.
• Certificate and document sections.
• Live data modules such as wholesale market prices or weather.
• Photography of facilities and produce.

For annual costs: a .com domain is about 20 to 25 dollars a year and good quality hosting starts at around 5,000 to 6,000 TL a year. Projects like this fall under our corporate website service, and you can review what each package covers on our packages page.

Summary

For agricultural producers and exporters, a website is a trade fair stand that stays open all year and speaks every language. An up-to-date catalogue, a clear harvest calendar, valid certificates and a fast quote form build trust before the first meeting with a new buyer.
