Stores connected to inventory and operations
Palmate Solutions builds and extends e-commerce experiences for businesses that need more than a theme: catalogue structure, checkout, payments, and integrations with inventory, ERP, and marketplaces. WooCommerce is a common fit when the rest of the organisation already lives in WordPress. Custom storefronts are the right call when the checkout or B2B rules will not fit a plugin maze.
The storefront sells what the warehouse no longer has. Inventory sync is an operations problem expressed through APIs, not a slider in a theme.
Each business rule added another plugin until upgrades became a coin toss. We reduce the surface area and put unique rules in code you own.
Price lists, quote flows, and net-30 accounts are not a coupon plugin. They need explicit models.
Amazon, a wholesale portal, and the public store all think they own the SKU. We define a source of truth and the direction of updates.
Catalogue, checkout, tax/shipping hooks, and custom plugins that survive upgrades.
Headless or fully custom carts when the experience or B2B rules require it.
Orders out, stock and fulfilment events back, with visible failures.
Channel updates that respect each marketplace’s constraints rather than a lowest-common-denominator dump.
SKUs, variants, bundles, and which channel is allowed to decrement stock.
The money path is specified before visual merchandising. Failed payments and refunds are first-class.
Warehouse, finance, and support tools receive events they can act on.
A catalogue freeze, a rollback plan, and monitoring on orders — not just on homepage uptime.
The store remains the customer surface; stock authority moves to the system operations already trust.
Logged-in catalogues and quote-to-order without pretending every buyer is a guest with a coupon.
A working website store adding a marketplace without double-selling the last unit.
Shopify is often faster to launch if you accept its constraints and fees. WooCommerce is a better fit when you need deep WordPress content, specific PHP extensibility, or hosting control. We will not migrate you for ideology.
Yes, with a plan for customers, orders, redirects, and a period where two systems may both be live. Migrations fail when SEO redirects and inventory cutover are improvised.
We integrate reputable payment providers. We do not store card data on your servers. PCI scope is part of the design conversation.
Most slow stores are plugin weight, unbounded queries, and uncached anonymous traffic. We profile before buying a bigger server.
