Selling Grocery online with Woocommerce My Grocery shop is closed for the last three months due to COVID-19, and groceries are the primary need of everyone. The closing of the shop caused a massive loss in my business; In this competitive market, I want another option to sell my product. Without opening the physical shop, it is quite problematic to continue the business activity in these uncertain times. Maintaining social distancing is also the priority of these days. From my relative, I came to know about the online store through which I can continue my business activity from anywhere. In this competitive market, I saw that the business with an online store is quite useful, profitable, and helpful in managing the crowd these days. The Current market depends on modern technology to continue the business activity successfully, and eCommerce is a robust technique to sell the products from anywhere. Business with an online store is straightforward and easy, eCommerce is the best option to sell the product online without any mashup. Knowing the benefits of the online store, I have decided Selling grocery online with Woocommerce. I can fulfill the demands of the customer and maintain relations with them without opening a physical store. Selling the products using an online store is beneficial for me in the following ways: More reach to customers, there are no theoretical geographic limitations. Low operational costs and better quality of services Easily retarget the customer. Online stores are always open. Increased Sales With Instant Gratification. It helps in maintaining social distancing. There are many platforms available to create an online store or eCommerce to sell many products. WooCommerce, Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento and Ravendel are one of them. I have analyzed such of them, and below I am providing some information about Woocommerce.
WooCommerce is a flexible, open-source eCommerce solution completely customizable eCommerce platform for entrepreneurs worldwide. WooCommerce empowers small and medium businesses to build precisely the store they want and sell online. There are numbers of free & paid beautiful themes available and to give an attractive look and feel to your online store. It is an entirely customizable platform, but a web developer is needed to do so. In Woocommerce the code is available It means the customization possibilities with a platform like WooCommerce are endless. You can create a store with a real personality. Little wonder that WooCommerce calls itself “the world’s most customizable eCommerce platform.” Specific, mobile-responsive WordPress themes exist for WooCommerce. There’s a vast selection to choose from and, because WordPress themes work with WooCommerce stores, your design options are never-ending. The following are some themes of Woocommerce which I have like for my Business. Hereford Hereford is agriculture and organic food theme that will help you build an astounding website. Whether you are into food recipes or a farmer with your own cattle farm, honey bees, or an eco-farm where you are growing your fruit and vegetables, this is just the theme for you. It comes with beautiful pre-designed layouts that will help you to display your products in a stellar fashion.

Green Farm The Green Farm is the perfect WordPress theme for organic farm websites or a fresh local market. Healthy organic food is mainstream presently.

The WooCommerce section has a fresh looking design and lets you create an organic food store or an organic shop, to sell farm-grown, eco natural products online.

So if Subscriptions are a big part of your business, I recommend staying with your current payment gateway. Compatibility with Apps: Another great thing about Stripe is that many infrastructures have been built directly on top of
it. Some applications, such as Baremetrics, have a direct integration with Stripe. Cannot Import Historical Data:It should come as no surprise to anyone who knows me that I’m a huge data nerd. If you’ve been in business for a few years, you have a vast amount of data about your customers, including how much they purchase and how often. A lot of this data should be in WooCommerce, but some information is saved in the payment gateway, and currently, you cannot import historical data into WooCommerce Payments. If you’re a giant data nerd or have very invaluable data that you don’t want to lose, you might want to wait until WooCommerce Payments lets you import your historical data. Negotiated Payment Gateway Fees: One of the last points could be one of the biggest depending on the size of your store. The standard pricing with modern payment gateways like Stripe and WooCommerce Payments is 2.9% + .30. Some merchants don’t know that you can negotiate better rates once you start bringing insignificant money. There aren’t any rates set in stone, but the rule of thumb is if you make over $80,000+ a month, you can negotiate prices with your payment gateway. Conclusion Business with eCommerce online stores results quite profitable and efficient to me in these days of covid19. It is quite challenging to continue the business activities these days without opening a shop. The eCommerce store has become another best option to sell my products and deliver it towards the customer safely without managing dense crowds. It also helps in maintaining social distancing and increases the sale of my product. Highly Experienced Backend, Frontend, Mobility, UI and UX Engineers.
