Delhivery Integration: Multi Vendor Marketplace for Shopify

Multi-Vendor Marketplace for Shopify is here with another marketplace shipping feature add-on, i.e., Delhivery.

Delhivery: Delhivery Private Limited is India’s largest B2B & C2C Logistic Courier Service Provider in India.

They provide the fastest Parcel Transportation, Warehousing & more. Using this featured app, merchants can allow vendors to ship their goods via Delhivery and then print the shipping label.

Charges: This feature will have an additional charge of USD 10 per month over & above your current multivendor marketplace plan.
