Through its partnership with eBay Enterprise, Ace Hardware's omnichannel initiative now offers in-store pickup in many of its locations, and is moving toward making the service available in at least 1000 stores.

EBay Enterprise, an eBay Inc. company, and provider of omni-channel solutions, has announced the availability of a Ship-from-Store SaaS solution: an initiative that retailers can deploy within 99 days to most effectively leverage their physical store inventories while gaining advantages in margin and shipping cost. The company says eBay Enterprise was first to market with its holistic, integrated back-end technology that provides retailers with one comprehensive inventory system delivered at an unparalleled rate.
