Merchant Story: Aberston

Aberston is an Ireland-based B2B online marketplace that connects independent retailers with creative artists and makers.

Helping retailers discover unique products and makers reach more customers, the platform enables both to grow by doing what they love.

Built to support small businesses and the creative community, Aberston simplifies the sourcing and selling process.

With a focus on quality and individuality, the marketplace celebrates craftsmanship and originality.

Aberston decided to launch an online multi-vendor marketplace to streamline wholesale sourcing and support independent makers across Ireland.

To achieve this, they partnered with a trusted Magento Development Company to implement the Adobe Commerce-based solution.

Aberston’s Roadblock: Lack of a Centralized Marketplace to Simplify Creative Product Distribution

Aberston faced challenges in connecting independent retailers with makers through an organized and efficient wholesale platform.

Without a central system, managing seller registrations, product listings, and order tracking was slow and difficult.

The lack of integration also caused delays in inventory updates, communication, and overall operations.

These issues made it harder to give makers proper visibility and offer retailers a smooth buying experience.

As a result, Aberston found it difficult to grow and support Ireland’s creative business community.

This case study looks at how Aberston resolved these challenges using Webkul’s comprehensive e-commerce solutions.

How Webkul Helped Aberston Bridge the Gap Between Makers and Retailers

Marketplace Multi Vendor Module for Magento 2 gave Aberston a powerful solution to manage multiple sellers and run its wholesale platform efficiently.

The extension enabled independent makers to access their own vendor dashboards to showcase store and product details with ease.

Using this panel, sellers could register, upload products, manage inventory, process orders and deliveries, and update profiles effortlessly.

To join as a vendor, users simply visit Aberston’s marketplace page, click on the ‘Open a Marketplace Shop’ section, and submit their details.

After creating a customer account, they can apply to become a seller by selecting “Become a Seller” and choosing a custom store URL.

Sellers send a request to the Aberston admin for approval, which can be reviewed manually or approved automatically for better control.

Once approved, they gain full access to marketplace features, and their products become visible to interested retailers.

The user-friendly vendor dashboard allows sellers to manage products, track orders, handle deliveries, and update stock with ease.

Sellers can also edit their profiles, improve store visibility, and use built-in tools to grow their business effectively.

The platform also integrates seamlessly with the Magento 2 Multi Vendor Mobile App, enabling flexible management anytime, anywhere.

Result of Launching Aberston’s Multi-Vendor Platform with Magento 2

Using Magento 2 Multi-Vendor Marketplace, Aberston gave independent makers a simple way to showcase their design-led products.

Sellers could easily manage and sell through personalized vendor dashboards.

Makers could sign up, list products, manage inventory, process orders, and connect with retailers across Ireland, without needing intermediaries.

This allowed them to grow their customer base, strengthen their brand, and focus more on their craft.

The platform supported creative entrepreneurship while streamlining wholesale sourcing for retailers.
