SendaShopping: a marketplace built around its sellers.

A multi-vendor platform has to connect the work of individual sellers with the operation of the wider marketplace. Products belong to seller storefronts, orders need to be managed, and commissions need to be tracked alongside commercial activity.

SendaShopping is a multi-vendor e-commerce platform covering those workflows. It appears in my work at Velectico Consulting, where I also worked on learning, support, and statement management systems.

The project uses Laravel and PHP with MySQL and JavaScript. The application scope spans seller-facing functionality and the workflows needed to operate a multi-vendor business.

A marketplace has several related concerns even when its individual screens look straightforward. A product is associated with a seller, the product participates in an order workflow, and commercial activity connects to commission tracking. Understanding those relationships is a useful starting point for planning this kind of application.

If you are planning a marketplace, I would first clarify the seller onboarding journey, ownership of product information, order responsibilities, and commission rules. These decisions shape the database and administrative workflows as much as the storefront design.

The initial scope should identify the workflows needed for the first release and the external integrations required to support them. That creates a clearer basis for estimating a custom Laravel build or extending an existing platform.
