How it sells itself

OrderDay prevents over-ordering by showing expiring inventory in the ordering workflow. Track batches with expiry dates, see which products have stock approaching expiration, and receive adjusted quantity recommendations. Alerts notify before supplier discount thresholds pass. For stores selling perishables.

RipeLedger tracks perishable stock by expiry date and the dollars at risk. Track expiry batch by batch (FEFO) and see the value at risk in 7/14/30-day buckets. Mark down near-expiry stock with a margin floor. Record write-offs, trace any lot back to its orders, and import by CSV. Automate daily markdowns, send a weekly money-at-risk email, forecast demand, and draft purchase orders.

Key points
  • Smart Reorder Recommendations - Know what's running low before it's too late
  • Multi-Supplier Cost Tracking - Compare prices across distributors
  • Expiry Tracking (FEFO) - Perfect for pet food, grocery, and perishables
  • See the dollars expiring in 7, 14, and 30 days, and what's already lost
  • Batch & expiry (FEFO) tracking Shopify lacks — CSV import to migrate your lots
  • Mark down near-expiry stock with a built-in margin floor
  • Automate daily markdowns and get a weekly money-at-risk email

How Shoplist compares apps

Store counts come from Shoplist’s crawl of Shopify storefronts, which detects the apps each store runs; they are as of Oct 13, 2026. Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
