About The Brand

Vidiwell is an e-commerce store that offers a plethora of products in the beauty, health, and well-being sectors. Currently, the brand delivers across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, and Bahrain. The mission of the brand is to offer world-class products, and services to its customers.

With the team’s continued efforts and smartly curated product range, the brand started to witness a boost in traction. Not to mention, the pandemic-led e-commerce boom in the Middle East amplified their overall order sales volume. But with this boost, it eventually became difficult to handle overall inventory, order & warehouse management, thus impacting their customer experience.

Challenges Faced By Vidiwell

Facing a tough time in handling inventory and order optimization, Vidiwell was in dire need to synchronize their APIs so that they could get real-time order updates at each stage.

  1. Witnessing error-prone reports due to manual management of data
  2. Tracking inventory manually across different software and spreadsheets was time-consuming
  3. Lack of systematic management of inventory across multiple sales channels
  4. Difficulty in following Government compliance (mention country where the product is manufactured) due to the absence of a stable backend system
  5. Hard to manage warehouse operations, including batch management, bulk order management, inventory accounting, and more
