How it sells itself

MakerPantry tracks the oils, lye, fragrance, jars and labels that go into your handmade products. Give each product a recipe, and MakerPantry works out how many you can actually make from what's on hand — counting shared ingredients across every product. When an order comes in, ingredients are deducted automatically. An hourly trust check compares your stock against Shopify, so you never sell more than you can make.

Simplify inventory management for products built from a bill of materials (BOM). If the availability of your products depend on materials, assemblies, components, or parts, Inventory Material Sync can help. Simply add your materials & assign their associated quantities to products & Inventory Material Sync will set the inventory quantities in Shopify based on the materials' availability.

Key points
  • See how many of each product you can make from the ingredients on hand
  • Track ingredient lots with quantities, costs and expiry dates
  • Deduct ingredients automatically when orders come in
  • Hourly trust check flags oversell risk before it happens
  • Automatically set inventory counts based on component weights and quantities
  • Orders and restocks will update product quantities & sub-components availability
  • Bulk import raw materials
