In today's digital age, e-commerce has revolutionized businesses' operations, allowing them to reach a broader audience and streamline their operations. Finding the right e-commerce tool for seafood suppliers can be a game-changer, and that's where Local Line can help. With our innovative features including sell-by-weight functionality, customizable storefront, and the newly introduced subscriptions feature, Local Line stands out as the best e-commerce tool for seafood suppliers.
One of the most critical aspects of selling seafood is ensuring accurate weight-based pricing. Most fish and crustaceans don't weigh the same – so why sell them like they are?
Local Line understands this and offers a comprehensive solution using our sell-by-weight functionality. Sell-by-weight allows seafood suppliers to sell their products by package, but charge customers according to the actual weight.
After a customer places an order, there's an automatic hold placed on their credit card (or not, if you use offline payment methods) for 7 days. Within 7 days, you can update the final catch weight of the order and automatically charge your customers card.
