A completely new way to buy

Empower your buyers to become the source of your competitive differentiation with NuORDER Assortments. The visual buying platform that helps you streamline your buying process, get your products online faster, and present more compelling assortments to your customers.

All brands in one standardized catalog

Buyers can preview collections ahead of market, make selections, and efficiently configure their buys with enriched brand data and tooling.

Reduce time spent writing orders by more than 50%.

Optimize inventory across all departments & stores

Visualize and roll-up all planned buys across all brands and drill down by any data point including by store, delivery, classification, and category to identify merchandising gaps.

Prevent overbuying, errors & markdowns

Get products ready to sell faster. Share assortments both internally and alongside brands in one collaborative space with real-time updates that reduce errors and minimize back-and-forth conversations.

"The NuORDER by Lightspeed platform streamlines our internal process with significant speed and efficiency, and allows us to elevate and cater to market preferences through curated on-trend assortments."

"Working with NuORDER is a key initiative in the Grassroots digital strategy, and aims to directly improve the bottom-line financial health of retailers by improving their ability to visualize, budget, plan and buy."

"Brands are able to share what they recommend as an assortment ahead of an appointment. This allows us to cut down on communication and editing so that our meeting is just collaborating on landing the final assortment."

“NuORDER gives our team visibility to every one of our 31 stores. Because we’re a collection of boutiques with hyper-localized assortments, this will allow us to be more efficient with localizing these assortments, and being able to make real-time decisions.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know what option is right for me?

Our Enterprise Buying Solution is best suited for large retailers who buy from a multitude of brands. If you are interested in signing up and exploring our marketplace, you can find more information here.

Is there a cost to brands?

It does not cost brands anything to share data through NuORDER for your buying needs.

What if a brand does not share data with NuORDER?

Our team is responsible for onboarding the brand, which means a NuORDER page will be created for each of your brands and it is our responsibility to ensure the brand’s product and catalog data is loaded and ready ahead of any appointment you have with the brand.

What if we are an eCommerce-only retailer?

Rather than view assortments by store, you can write orders by distribution centers. Besides that, all the benefits of our solution are the same.
