Avetti Supplier Connect is a helpful tool for Shopify store owners who want to boost their sales by adding multiple vendors to their platform. It simplifies the process of managing suppliers and allows merchants to offer a wider variety of products to their customers.

With Supplier Connect, you can automate the entire ordering process. By clicking a button in your Shopify store, the tool notifies the supplier about the received order. This eliminates the need for manual communication of order details and shipping addresses, reducing the chances of errors. The supplier can then fulfill the order and ship the product directly to the customer. This not only saves time but also improves accuracy.
