Did you ever figure out how to do this roo get an answer? I’m trying to do the same thing…
Topic summary
Merchants need a way to process a single bulk purchase into many shipments by importing a CSV of recipients (names, addresses, emails, phones) from the backend, not via a customer-facing app.
Current state: One participant states there’s no native Shopify method to import multiple shipping addresses for a single order and suggests using shipping apps like Shippo or Pirate Ship (shipping-label level workflows).
App suggestions offered for CSV-based order creation:
- Order’s Up! CSV Order Importer
- BulkPro – Order Import
Key constraint raised: A merchant needs addresses handled at the order level (creating individual orders from CSV), not merely at the shipping/label level. There’s uncertainty whether the suggested apps meet this exact requirement.
Latest update: A user has contacted a developer who claims to have found an app that would work, but confirmation is pending.
Outcome: No confirmed, definitive solution in-thread. Options discussed include third-party shipping apps (for labels) and CSV order importers (to create orders), but the fit for “order-level” address import remains unverified. Discussion remains open with unanswered questions on a backend-only, native or app-based workflow.
