Ordoro, Shopify Tie-up to Bring Order to Online Shops

E-retailing requires not just products but also a great website, an easy to use payment gateway, good inventory management, on-time shipping facilities, and more. Online retail giants such as Amazon and Wal-Mart have the resources to ensure that all these essentials are in place all the time. Smaller retailers catering to niche segments cannot build all these facilities up from scratch. They rely on others to provide a shopping cart and other components of a great e-retail website as well as backend support for their e-commerce operations.

Now Ordoro, a site that takes care of the backend operations such as inventory control, order management, and shipping of numerous e-commerce websites, has joined forces with Shopify, which provides a great shopping cart solution and facilities to set up online stores to small and medium e-retailers.

This collaboration will ensure that Ordoro’s clients can benefit from Shopify’s shopping cart and payment solutions even as they enjoy the inventory, vendor management, and shipping solutions offered by Ordoro. This will help small and medium online retailers have robust solutions that help them offer customer service that is on par with that offered by online giants such as Amazon.

The increased efficiencies will help small e-retailers capture a share of the online market that is estimated to grow to $200 billion in 2012. The online retail segment has been growing by 10 percent year on year and has the space to accommodate both the small niche players and the giants.
