At DAC Design, we understand the unique challenges and opportunities faced by furniture retailers and wholesalers. Our team has deep experience in helping businesses in the furniture and interiors industries, such as Horgans, Belle Vie Furniture, and Kate Nixon, excel with custom Shopify eCommerce solutions. Whether you’re a designer, retailer, or wholesaler, our tailored approach ensures your Shopify store not only looks beautiful but also works seamlessly with the tools and systems you need to run your business effectively.
Why Shopify is Perfect for Furniture Businesses
Shopify is a powerful SaaS (Software as a Service) platform that takes away many of the headaches traditionally associated with website development. By using Shopify, furniture businesses can focus on growing their brand, while Shopify handles the technical infrastructure. With no need to worry about server maintenance, security, or software updates, you can rest assured knowing that your online store is always running smoothly.
Here’s why Shopify is ideal for furniture businesses:
• Cost-Effective Design and Development: Achieve stunning, professional designs at a competitive price. With Shopify, we can create a customised and fully-branded online store that reflects the beauty and style of your products, without the high development costs.
• Easy to Use and Train Staff: One of Shopify’s biggest advantages is its ease of use. We ensure your team is fully trained to manage products, process orders, and handle customer enquiries with minimal effort. From managing your inventory to updating content, your staff will be able to handle day-to-day tasks without requiring constant support.
• Scalable for Growth: Shopify grows with your business. Whether you’re just starting with a single location or have plans to expand, Shopify’s flexibility and scalability make it the perfect solution for long-term success.
Tailored Solutions for the Furniture Industry
DAC Design specialises in developing Shopify stores that cater specifically to the needs of furniture retailers, wholesalers, and designers. We understand the nuances of selling large, customisable, and high-ticket items like furniture, and we build Shopify websites that reflect your brand’s aesthetic while ensuring smooth customer experiences from browsing to checkout.
We’ve helped businesses like Horgans create an eCommerce platform that showcases their furniture collections beautifully, while also ensuring back-end operations are streamlined for growth. Similarly, Belle Vie Furniture benefited from a highly functional and visually engaging Shopify store that reflects the brand’s unique personality and style.
Seamless Integration with Essential Applications
A successful eCommerce business requires more than just a beautiful website—it needs to function as an efficient, well-oiled machine. At DAC Design, we ensure that your Shopify store integrates seamlessly with the tools and systems that keep your furniture business running smoothly. These include:
• Cin7 for Inventory Control: Manage stock levels in real-time across multiple locations with Cin7, a powerful inventory management system that integrates with Shopify. This ensures your website always displays accurate product availability, helping you avoid stockouts and overstocking.
• Klaviyo for Digital Marketing: Build automated email campaigns, personalised customer journeys, and increase engagement with Klaviyo, a leading marketing automation tool that syncs seamlessly with Shopify.
• Gorgias for Customer Support: Provide exceptional customer service with Gorgias, a customer support platform that allows you to manage all customer queries in one place. It integrates with Shopify to provide a 360-degree view of your customers’ purchases, interactions, and inquiries.
• Lightspeed or Shopify POS for Retail Operations: Whether you prefer Lightspeed or Shopify POS, we help you integrate your in-store and online operations. This means inventory, sales, and customer data are synced across all channels, ensuring a unified retail experience.
• Shipping Solutions: Advanced logistics are crucial for furniture businesses. We integrate your Shopify store with shipping aggregators like Intuitive Shipping, Shippit, and Starshipit, providing seamless shipping options that make managing large and complex orders easy.
Omni-Channel Solutions for Furniture Retailers
In today’s retail landscape, offering an omni-channel experience is essential. With Shopify, we help furniture businesses provide a unified shopping experience across all customer touchpoints—whether online, in-store, or through mobile. By integrating Shopify with POS systems, inventory tools, and digital marketing platforms, you can provide your customers with a seamless experience that builds trust and loyalty.
At Kate Nixon, for example, we implemented an omni-channel strategy that connected her digital presence with in-store operations, creating a cohesive experience that allowed customers to engage with the brand wherever they shop.
