See every featureSkucast turns Shopify into a real inventory back office. Demand forecasting classifies every SKU (smooth, lumpy, dead, seasonal, new) and tells you when and how much to reorder. Create purchase orders, email them for one-click vendor acknowledgement, and receive with freight blended into true landed cost.
Managing retail purchasing without dedicated tools means relying on spreadsheets and guesswork. Skumo brings the full buying cycle into your store admin. Sales history drives suggested order quantities per supplier, so buying decisions reflect real demand. Orders are sent to suppliers by email from the app and inventory updates automatically on receipt.
