Shopify takes big steps towards Shopify Fulfillment with the acquisition of 6 River Systems

I just saw the news that Shopify is taking major steps towards their warehouse fulfillment solution and I can’t wait to see the impact this has on merchants.

Shopify announced in June at their annual Shopify Unite conference that fulfillment was coming. Honestly, I was a bit skeptical as it didn’t sound like there were any teeth behind this and certainly didn’t think it was going to happen in this calendar year. I’m sure it still won’t have a significant impact on merchants in 2019, but in 2020, I foresee big changes happening for the better.

Shopify is taking major steps to be the top e-commerce platform and the only true contender to Amazon. See the full press release from September 9, 2019.

Exciting times!
