Case Study: Outdoor Designer Store achieves streamlined multi-supplier ordering and designer–customer collaboration with nopCommerce

Nopcommerce Customization to Meet Client’s Demands Outdoor Designer Store Example

Outdoor Designer Store is an online platform for landscape designers and their clients, built to simplify the fragmented process of sourcing outdoor products. Using the nopCommerce platform, the site addressed challenges like tracking client preferences across multiple supplier sites, coordinating deliveries and payments from many vendors, enabling designers to upload and sell products, providing a moodboard for client collaboration, and supporting split payments and commission rules.

nopCommerce was used as the framework by solution partner CoSource, which implemented custom plugins (including Ods.Nop.Core, Ods.Nop.LandscaperBrandDiscount, CoSource.Nop.UniversalImporter and Ods.Nop.Payments.BPoint) and event listeners to add a designers’ portal, moodboard/worksheet workflow, supplier dashboard, universal product importer and reverse worksheets. The result is a scalable, multi-vendor platform that has attracted over 300 registered users, earned media coverage, and continues to be extended—benefiting from nopCommerce’s pluggable architecture and multi-vendor support to handle complex commission and payment flows.
