Fetchify boosts e-commerce capability of major UK outdoor clothing brand

“The migration from Fetchify to Shopify was smooth and well-managed. The credit transfer process was clearly explained and completed efficiently, and ongoing account support by our Account Manager has been responsive and helpful throughout. It’s been a very positive experience overall.” – Anthony Stodart, Managing Director

The Client


ArdMoor Limited


The Background


Having gained a following for a product selection that is hand-picked to meet the rugged demands of country life, ArdMoor continues to grow in line with demand for its outdoor clothing and country supplies.

 

ArdMoor has worked with Fetchify since 2021, when it incorporated the Address Auto-Complete function into its checkout process, enabling its customers to pinpoint their address in real-time and avoid operational issues such as failed deliveries and missing products.

 

As the company scaled and looked to future-proof its operations, the team made the strategic decision to migrate from Shopify to Shopify Plus - gaining access to a more robust and scalable platform to support their growing product catalogue and customer base.

 

However, knowledge gaps around the new platform led to transition issues. As a result, the UK-wide brand turned to Fetchify for support


The Solution


Fetchify worked closely with ArdMoor to fine-tune its Shopify Plus platform, which resulted in the business establishing a new digital infrastructure that can now efficiently support its future growth plans. 

 

This seamless transition, which saw Fetchify help ArdMoor migrate a number of core services and credits to Shopify Plus, was behind the business’s subsequent decision to invest further in Fetchify’s technology.

 

In 2025, ArdMoor will bolster its checkout experience by incorporating Fetchify’s Email Address Validation tool, which will alert customers when they have incorrectly inputted their email address at checkout.

 

In doing so, ArdMoor will reduce administration time associated with having to manually locate correct email addresses, and ensure that there is no breakdown in communication at critical points such as despatch and delivery notifications.


The Result


Fetchify has helped ArdMoor by:

 

  • Reconfiguring its system to effectively integrate with Shopify Plus
  • Providing proactive technical support throughout the transition
  • Reducing operational issues by ensuring that all key details are correctly inputted at checkout
  • Enhancing the customer experience by ensuring that critical communication outreach, such as delivery updates and marketing information, reach the intended recipient
  • Preparing the rollout of Email Address Validation services



“We’ve worked with ArdMoor for several years and continue to see them go from strength to strength. However, when they moved to an unfamiliar platform, they drew on our team’s expertise to guide them through the initial hurdles. As a team of experts with vast experience in other providers’ platforms, we were able to work on a consultative basis to ease them through the transition.”

An article in Ecommerce News recently put a number to something every online retailer dreads: lost parcels. In Q4 2024 alone, European ecommerce retailers lost €500 million in revenue due to 3.72 million undelivered parcels. That’s roughly €145 per parcel in direct and indirect logistics costs. And while the official rate of “lost” parcels is just 0.06%, the reality – accounting for misdelivery, theft, and reporting gaps – is likely closer to 0.7%. That’s 1 in every 143 parcels. The Hidden Costs of a 'Lost' Delivery For enterprise-scale ecommerce operations, the implications scale fast: Lost product and packaging costs Repeat fulfilment and reverse logistics Customer service team time and refunds Increased churn and checkout abandonment Damage to brand reputation and online reviews So Why Are Parcels Going Missing? Many issues originate in the last mile of the delivery process. The root cause is often poor data quality: Incomplete or inaccurate delivery addresses captured at checkout Manual amendments to address fields by warehouse or courier staff Ambiguous delivery locations (e.g., "front porch") Lack of precise geolocation data for drop-off Inadequate or unverifiable proof of delivery Some losses are unavoidable, but most stem from gaps in ecommerce data validation and fulfilment process transparency. What Retailers Can Control with Smart Logistics Data While you can’t eliminate theft or accidents, you can reduce missed deliveries and failed first attempts through better data validation and delivery insights: Real-Time Address Validation at Checkout Fetchify’s ecommerce address validation tools connect directly with official data sources including Royal Mail PAF and the Multiple Residence dataset. This ensures accurate delivery details for apartment blocks, HMOs, student housing, and more. Unlike generic autocomplete tools, this is verified delivery point data. Rooftop-Accurate Geocoding for Pinpoint Delivery Fetchify’s Rooftop Geocodes assign precise latitude and longitude to verified addresses – helping carriers reach the exact doorstep, not just the postcode centroid. Proof of Delivery with Location and Time Stamping Our data solutions integrate seamlessly with POD technologies, supporting timestamped, geo-tagged delivery images. Customers can also submit geo-located photos during disputes, enabling faster, fairer resolutions. Map-Based Address Confirmation for Shoppers By embedding a zoomed-in map in the checkout process, ecommerce brands allow customers to visually confirm their delivery location. This prevents ambiguous or misentered addresses from the start. Audit Trails and Address Change Tracking Fetchify tracks address field edits and changes across the fulfilment chain, helping to pinpoint where a delivery went wrong and maintain data accountability. Marginal Gains. Major Ecommerce Impact. Smart logistics and address data validation might only reduce parcel loss by fractions of a percent – but the impact is huge: A 0.1% improvement = thousands of saved parcels = millions in recovered revenue Fewer failed deliveries = less pressure on customer support teams Accurate addresses = better first-time delivery success and lower last-mile costs Conclusion: Delivery Accuracy is a Data Challenge Lost parcels aren’t just a logistics challenge. They’re a symptom of poor data validation in ecommerce. From checkout to doorstep, the journey must be powered by precise, verified data. Fetchify helps online retailers solve this problem with address validation, geolocation, and enhanced fulfilment transparency. If you want to stop asking “Whose front door is this?” – start with smarter ecommerce data. Want to improve delivery success and reduce failed parcels?
