Vantage Apparel, Avenel, N.J., recently announced its integration with Order My Gear, Dallas.
Through this integration, customers will not only have access to Vantage’s fashion-forward merchandise but also have live inventory feeds, while distributors can choose from hundreds of Vantage styles from brands like Vansport, Gildan and Greg Norman Collection to build a retail looking site in less than 15-minutes, according to both companies.
Over the last year, Vantage has formalized partnerships with many e-commerce providers, such as BrightStores, allowing for a zero-touch experience for store owners and reducing production time to as little as a 24-hour turnaround on decorated apparel orders.
Additionally, Vantage partnered with Shopify, automating the order process and allowing distributors to focus more on growing sales and less on costly day-to-day operations of owning and managing and online store.
“Vantage has seen year over year growth in webstore sales with the recent pandemic creating an even greater demand for e-commerce solutions,” says Rob Watson, Vantage’s chief experience officer. “Webstores not only allow you to easily change apparel offerings seasonally, but they also provide the buyer with a customized shopping experience; selecting the size and color they want at checkout.”
Vantage provides its own webstore solution to its customers from a free online catalog store, to a $39/month ecommerce-enabled boutique store which comes equipped with credit card processing, and features like account management, fast check-out, promo codes and reporting. — D.S.
