“As the business grew and we expanded to a larger warehouse and more online marketplaces, we realized we needed a more sophisticated inventory and order management system to boost time-savings and operating efficiencies,” said Brad Hendricksen, Accounting and Operations Manager at Walking Comfort. “With Descartes Sellercloud, we have a powerful platform that has facilitated ecommerce growth, saved us hundreds of hours per week by automatically consolidating data across all sales channels, eliminated picking errors so staff no longer pick the wrong size or variation, and cut shipping costs by more than 55%—even enabling us to dropship directly from retail locations if it’s the most convenient and cost-effective option for a customer.”
