The challenge

Pittarello is one of Italy's leading footwear and accessories retailers: 64 stores, stock distributed across warehouses and points of sale, and a rapidly growing eCommerce operation. In 2024, shipments grew by 35% compared to the previous year. With such a fragmented logistics network, rapid growth risked translating into delays, errors and uncontrolled costs — rather than success.

  • Orders spread across multiple warehouses and stores: risk of delays, errors and unplanned costs
  • Fragmented stock: impossible to sell online the inventory sitting in physical stores without a unified view of availability
  • Slow, unoptimised carrier selection in terms of both cost and delivery time
  • Growing volume of WISMO requests: open tickets and support costs on a constant upward trend

The solution

Pittarello built an integrated ecosystem connecting Shopify Plus, OneStock (OMS for order orchestration) and Qapla', with the technical integration handled by ICT Sviluppo.

Automatic routing to the most efficient node Every order is directed in real time to the warehouse or store with the right stock availability, reducing preparation and delivery times.
2
Automatic reallocation when a product is unavailable Zero delays, zero cancellations. The system always finds an alternative without any manual intervention.
3
Label printing, multi-carrier management and centralised tracking Qapla' handles the entire shipping phase across all integrated carriers, with Pittarello-branded notifications.
