Challenges  
+ Solutions

Challenge 01

Omnichannel implementation around complex inventory rules, and multi-location inventory.

Large SKU base where some products were available for both Store Pickup as well as Home Delivery and Pre-Order. Being able to distinguish which products should be made available for store pick up or home delivery.

SOLUTION

Use of Shopify Product Variant structure for different inventory locations, implementing conditional display rules and Shopify Shipping Scripts to handle Delivery Rates.

‍

Challenge 02

Addressing the impact of covid on customer purchase behaviour

The arrival of covid and subsequent lockdowns saw a huge jump in online sales, particularly in the homeware category as consumers were naturally spending more time at home. However, consumers needed the confidence to buy large items online without first having the opportunity to experience them in the showroom.

‍

SOLUTION

A seamless data integration between the online store, the ERP and Shopify POS empowered sales associates could easily log in and access or modify the information as needed—in real-time. There is also a seamless flow of data now since the company was able to integrate its existing ERP system and connect different applications across the business.

Challenge 03
