What it does
Many WooCommerce stores track suppliers in spreadsheets or inboxes, which makes it hard to know who supplies what and when to reorder. This extension moves that information into your store. You create a profile for each supplier with contact details, terms and notes, then assign products to the right supplier. From there, a supplier dashboard shows your suppliers and their stock statuses together, so you can see at a glance where attention is needed.
The plugin also watches stock levels for the products linked to each supplier. When an item reaches low stock or goes out of stock, it sends an email notification to that supplier and to any additional recipients you choose, such as a purchasing manager. That cuts down on manual follow-ups and keeps restocking requests moving. It requires WooCommerce and works inside your existing store, which makes it a practical fit for shops with a handful of suppliers or many of them.
Best for
- WooCommerce stores that reorder stock from several suppliers
- Shop owners tired of tracking suppliers in spreadsheets
- Retail teams that share restocking duties
Features
Detailed supplier profiles
Keep each supplier's contact details, terms and notes in one record, so the information you need for ordering is always in your store admin.
Link products to suppliers
Assign every product in your catalog to a specific supplier, making it clear who provides each item and who to contact when it needs restocking.
Stock monitoring by supplier
Track stock quantities for the products tied to each supplier, giving you a clearer picture of replenishment needs across your supply sources.
Automatic low stock alerts
When a product hits low stock or runs out, the plugin emails the linked supplier automatically, which reduces the need to send reorder messages by hand.
Multiple alert recipients
Add extra recipients to notifications so team members such as buyers or warehouse staff receive the same stock alerts as your suppliers.
Central supplier dashboard
View and manage all suppliers and their stock statuses from a single screen instead of switching between products and separate records.
