Skida Partners with NuOrder by Lightspeed to Enhance Wholesale Operations
Vermont-based outdoor brand Skida has partnered with B2B commerce platform NuOrder, a subsidiary of Lightspeed, to streamline its wholesale operations. Previously managing orders and inventory manually via spreadsheets, the company faced challenges in showcasing its print-heavy product line and maintaining seasonal inventory allocations. By implementing two portals—Skida Prebook for pre-season orders and Skida ASAP for immediate stock—the brand has improved order management while preserving inventory control. The new platform also introduced digital line sheets with lifestyle photography and visual cataloging, enabling a self-service shopping experience for wholesale buyers to select specific prints tailored to their markets. As a result, 81% of the company’s wholesale business is now conducted through buyer-initiated orders via Skida's portal—well above industry averages. This shift has helped boost sales across product lines and positioned Skida for expansion into additional apparel and gear categories.
