Globe’s IT solutions company, Yondu, reintroduces Vessell’s new direction as a one-stop e-commerce platform. The change is driven to better meet the needs of retailers today.
In a recent study by the Statista Research Department, Shopee, Lazada, and Zalora topped the list of the most popular e-commerce platforms in the country. It is then common for retailers to create an account in all three, but handling transactions on these different platforms created a constant challenge for many sellers.
Retailers have to manage the inventory, orders, and fulfillment independently. They also spend a lot of time doing manual tasks, such as digging through data, generating and consolidating reports, and reviewing stock allocation. According to Vessell’s research, 90% of sellers’ time is spent consolidating the data rather than working with it.
These issues prompted Vessell to take action and address the challenges faced by retailers. With a centralized dashboard, Vessell connects popular marketplaces like Shopee, Lazada, and Zalora. It allows sellers to manage inventory and orders in one place, prevents stock-out, and helps in forecasting.
Despite the pandemic restrictions becoming more relaxed, the e-commerce sector continues its steady rise as more sellers and consumers prefer shopping online, as shown by the recent data from Statista Research Department. Vessell aims to enable this continued growth by enhancing its capabilities to make things easier for retailers and allow them to focus on growing their business.
Vessell started as an off-the-shelf e-commerce platform two years ago. It targeted to address the evolving consumer needs that came along with the pandemic and enable businesses to shift their sales and operations online to thrive in the now normal.
Since then, Vessell has continued to provide business owners with the necessary e-commerce tools to build their own online stores. It handles bigger tasks like validating payments, booking deliveries, omnichannel syncing, and inventory management. Businesses can also work with Vessell to create new features custom-fit to their needs. Since the team is based locally, collaboration is easier for clients.
With this groundbreaking SaaS (Software as a Service) business model product, retailers can focus on more important tasks such as strategy, marketing, and merchandising. On the other hand, end customers of a brand can be assured that the products they want to buy will always be available because the inventory is being managed across multiple platforms.
Vessell offers an array of pricing packages ranging from P2,499.00/mo to P39,999/mo. Retailers would have the flexibility to choose which plan best suits their requirements, from Vessell’s Basic package with order management capabilities to the Enterprise package with marketplace integrations. Merchants who are interested can start their journey with Vessell by visiting their website and booking a demo.
“This is just the beginning for Vessell as we remain committed to continue improving the platform to empower retailers and drive them to success,” said Alex Pelayo, Associate Product Director of Vessell. “Currently, Vessell is exploring integration to more relevant marketplaces so more sellers can look forward to improved and expanded order and inventory management solutions for bigger operations.”
