International Sales with two POD suppliers

Topic summary

  • Goal: Use two print-on-demand (POD) suppliers for the same products in a single Shopify store to speed delivery and lower shipping costs across two continents.

  • Proposed approach: If both suppliers provide APIs (programmatic interfaces), create a custom app to implement routing logic based on the merchant’s needs (e.g., customer location) so orders are sent to the appropriate supplier.

  • Status: Only a custom-app/API-based solution was suggested; no native Shopify method or alternative app was provided. The discussion remains open pending confirmation of supplier API availability and implementation details.

Hi

I’m looking to use two print on demand suppliers for the exact same items to increase speed and lower shipping costs to customers across two continents.
Is there a way to set this up on Shopify within one store?

Thank you in advance

Do you POD suppliers have API ? If so, Custom APP will be your solution. Put logic on Custom app based on your need.
