Big8 Marketplace

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Building a Scalable Multi-Vendor Ecommerce Marketplace

AffordIT transformed this concept into a structured, scalable marketplace. Before development began, our team mapped the complete platform workflow and prepared a detailed Software Requirements Specification covering customers, vendors, affiliates, administrators, products, orders, commissions and system integrations.

MARKETPLACE ENGINEERING

Built Around Scale, Accuracy and Control

Big8 Marketplace needed to manage an extensive product catalogue while supporting multiple vendors, affiliates and customers through separate user experiences. Product descriptions, images, pricing and availability also needed to remain accurate without relying on time-consuming manual updates.

Multi-Role Dashboards

Dedicated dashboards for administrators, vendors, affiliates and customers.

Automated Daily Sync

Product information is refreshed automatically every 24 hours.

AffordIT designed a scalable Laravel architecture supported by MySQL and a responsive Bootstrap front end. Custom RESTful APIs connected the marketplace with Ingram Micro, while scheduled cron jobs automatically refresh product information every 24 hours.
