How it sells itself

For Shopify merchants selling SanMar apparel, including embroidery and custom apparel businesses. Enter a SanMar style number, set your base price, and import only the products you need with images, descriptions, spec sheets, colors, and size variants. No FTP files or developer required. Paid plans sync inventory hourly to help reduce overselling, without overwriting your custom titles or descriptions.

Syncro helps brands, suppliers, and multi-store businesses manage inventory from one source Shopify store. Automatically send stock changes to connected destination stores, reducing manual inventory updates. Let approved merchants browse your source catalog and import selected products. Match existing variants by SKU, manage product sharing, and review inventory update history from your dashboard.

Key points
  • Import SanMar products into Shopify with structured product data and variants.
  • Keep Shopify inventory updated based on supplier stock changes.
  • Manage sizes, colors, and variant inventory efficiently without manual updates.
  • The app retrieves product variant data from both stores using the Shopify API
  • The app matches SKUs between the source and destination stores.
  • The app automatically updates inventory levels in the destination store
