Store model

Sell direct and through dealers without duplicating product data

Manufacturers use Shepherd to run D2C alongside dealer or wholesale portals. Variant-level inventory, dimensional shipping data, and B2B pricing rules live in one admin — not spread across Shopify plus a separate B2B tool.

What we ship

  • Physical, digital, and license product types in the same catalog
  • Per-variant weight and dimensions for accurate carrier quotes
  • Customer groups and pricing tiers for dealer vs direct channels
  • Order fulfillment workflows with ShipStation and multi-origin support

Typical setup

Typical rollout: migrate catalog SKUs, configure variant weights for logistics, wire wholesale pricing rules, then launch D2C while onboarding dealer accounts.
