01 · The challenge
What had to change
Wain needed a one-person operating system that could connect Shopify, customer data, lifecycle programs, catalog enrichment, analytics, and a new B2B channel. Earlier, 1-800-Bakery needed a full platform and marketplace transformation across a catalog exceeding 15,000 SKUs.
