New Zealand-based inventory and sales management provider TradeGecko has created a new solution based on growing demand from customers within the fashion industry.
Its cloud-based inventory and sales management application now includes a new 'app marketplace'.
This allows users to connect all business tools they use into TradeGecko to create a streamlined back office system.
Co-founder Carl Thompson, a former clothing label operator, said he understood how time consuming it was to keep online stores up-to-date.
"This is key for designers, jewellers and other wholesalers within the fashion industry to connect their softwares together and create a complete end-to-end solution that streamlines their back-end."
The app integrates TradeGecko with Shopify, a leading e-commerce platform for small to medium businesses
The app creates one central inventory system that automatically keeps their Shopify store up-to-date with the latest product data and stock levels, eliminating the possibility of data double-handling errors.
TradeGecko chief executive Cameron Priest said the company plans to release further apps in coming months, with the most recent release based directly on customer feedback.
"Customers have been telling us what a nightmare it was trying to keep their online stock levels matching their warehouse stock levels."
TradeGecko users activate the app and connect their Shopify stores to TradeGecko within their app settings.
Once their Shopify account is connected, TradeGecko automatically pulls and pushes all required data in real time.
New sales from Shopify are pulled into TradeGecko as pending orders ready and waiting for fulfillment.
TradeGecko was founded in New Zealand in January this year.
