Casa Cravioto: store-level inventory and in-store pickup with Adobe Commerce
We built the online store of Casa Cravioto, a Mexican hardware retailer, on Adobe Commerce: thousands of products, stock by branch and availability by zip code.
On this page
For Casa Cravioto, a Mexican hardware supply company founded in 1986, we at WolfSellers built an online store on Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento) with its catalog of thousands of products, a custom design and Multi-Source Inventory (MSI). With MSI, customers could see each product's stock by branch and, with their zip code, find out whether it was available.
Project overview
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Client | Casa Cravioto |
| Industry | Hardware retail |
| Market | Mexico |
| Project type | B2C online store with a custom design |
| Platform | Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento), with Multi-Source Inventory (MSI) |
| What WolfSellers did | Built the store, with a custom design and UX improvements to search and checkout |
| Catalog | Thousands of products |
The challenge
Casa Cravioto needed to present a catalog of thousands of hardware products online, meet its customers' search and checkout needs, and show each product's availability at its branches.
The solution
Custom design
We created a 100% custom design, with user experience improvements to search and checkout.
Multi-Source Inventory in action
We enabled Adobe Commerce's Multi-Source Inventory (MSI) to control all inventory globally. Customers could see each product's stock by branch.
In-store pickup purchases worked through geolocation: customers entered their zip code and learned whether the product was available.
Results
- Catalog online: thousands of hardware products, with a design of its own.
- Stock visible by branch: customers could check each branch's stock before buying.
- Availability by zip code: geolocation told customers whether the product was available.
What applies to other retail projects with physical stores
- Stock by branch, not just overall. MSI makes it possible to show each store's stock, which is what an in-store pickup purchase needs.
- Large catalogs call for careful search and checkout. With thousands of products, the user experience improvements focused on search and checkout.
- Geolocate with the zip code. Casa Cravioto solved availability with a piece of data customers know by heart.
