Hisashi Corporation, which provides the e-commerce data management cloud “EC Connector®,” has begun offering the beta version of “MultiVendor,” which enables drop shipping (direct shipment from the manufacturer) and centralized management of multiple suppliers, as well as a marketplace, on an existing single-cart store.
“EC Connector® MultiVendor” Service Overview
“MultiVendor” is a marketplace function that allows you to sell not only your own products but also other companies’ products in combination with drop shipping (direct shipment from the manufacturer) on your existing e-commerce site built with Shopify, futureshop, B-cart, etc. By introducing this service, you can automatically distribute order information to each manufacturer (vendor) and send products directly from the manufacturer’s warehouse to the buyer without having to hold inventory in your own warehouse.

Background of development: Rising logistics costs and the need for inventory diversification
Since the “Logistics 2024 Problem” caused by a driver shortage, rising logistics costs such as warehouse storage fees and transportation fees, longer lead times from order to delivery, and increased inventory risk have become serious issues. This has led to a growing need for a shift to “drop shipping,” where products are delivered directly from the manufacturer to the customer without holding inventory. However, for many e-commerce businesses, the cumbersome task of individually sending order data to multiple suppliers and managing shipping status has been a major barrier to the shift to drop shipping. Therefore, we developed “MultiVendor,” which reduces and eliminates inventory risk and distribution costs.
