Vcommerce Corporation, the leader in SaaS end-to-end eCommerce services announced that, the new eCommerce site of Hancock Fabrics Inc has gone live.

In response to increasing need to find a broad and deep enterprise class eCommerce platform that would improve their order capture, order management and order fulfillment solutions, Hancock Fabrics conducted an extensive search for a partner with true end-to- end platform capabilities able to support Hancock Fabric's ongoing innovation and drive for competitive advantage.

Hancock Fabrics selected Vcommerce based on their proven ability to execute, the completeness of the eCommerce solution, their robust, scalable platform, and their team's knowledge, expertise, and willingness to understand and execute on Hancock Fabrics eCommerce strategy.

"When we were starting our search for an eCommerce platform, we knew we needed someone with robust end-to-end capabilities to help us reach our long term revenue goals," said Chris Elledge, Chief Technology Officer of Hancock Fabrics Inc.

"We needed a partner to dive in and understand our business. That required more than technology. Vcommerce not only had the platform and client base to prove to us that they could execute, they also have the team in place, constantly providing us with feedback and assistance to make our eCommerce plans come to fruition."

With the goal of world class execution in mind, Vcommerce reached out to Prithvi Information Solutions the global leader in application integration services, to assist in the implementation of the Hancock Fabrics eCommerce solution.

Vcommerce chose Prithvi as a partner because of the breadth of their Retail Technology Services and their understanding of the Retail Industry as well as their proven ability to provide solutions that combine the rigor of corporate and project quality requirements with the real-world needs to reduce total cost of ownership and time-to-market.
