Shopify and Pipe17 have announced a partnership.
The mentioned companies stated that their collaboration will help Shopify merchants connect Shopify to marketplaces and sales channels while ensuring that their fulfillment channels and back-office applications work together. The firms said about this in a press release.
The new capabilities will allow Shopify to better serve direct-to-consumer (D2C), B2B, and enterprise merchants and enable Pipe17 to provide the merchants with a managed network of hundreds of commerce apps, including marketplaces, third-party logistics (3PL), warehouse management systems (WMSs), enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and data lakes.
The companies also stated that merchants, by connecting their various accounts, will be able to eliminate operational friction and provide accurate real-time inventory through all channels.
Dale Traxler, director of global technology partners at Shopify, said that this company is dedicated to supporting the complex needs of fast-growing, larger brands and retailers. It was also noted that Pipe17 handles complex order management needs for large brands, and their technology helps merchants scale more easily across new channels.
Tim Morse, senior vice president of partnerships and business development at Pipe17, said this partnership will directly help Shopify gain and support even more enterprise and B2B merchants.
In January, Pipe17 reported that it had raised $15.5 million in a Series A funding round. The company noted that the money would be used to implement efforts to build and scale infrastructure for artificial intelligence-powered composable order operations.
