Voltive
06/06/2024
We got our start way back in 2017 with just 4 products, selling exclusively on Amazon and shipping exclusively from Amazon's fulfillment network. A lot has changed since then. Our product line has grown to over 200 products, which we now ship from our own fulfillment network and sell on Voltive.com.
When we started selling on Voltive.com, we chose an off the shelf e-commerce platform, which did a lot of things well. But the standard e-commerce experience isn't really the right fit for wholesale customers. As our wholesale customer base grew, the shortcomings of that platform became harder and harder to ignore. So we set out trying to figure out how we could give our customers the buying experience they deserve. Eventually we came to the painful realization that we would have to build the whole thing ourselves. From scratch.
So that's what we did.
Today we are proud to announce the launch of our new website and store. This is our baby. Every single little detail was hand crafted by us, in house. It was a lot of work (way more than we thought when we started), but we think it's probably the best wire & cable buying experience that exists. And this is just version 1.0. We have a long list of features that we'll be building out in the coming months.
Here are some of the highlights of this initial launch:
