Linnworks

Order and inventory platform for high-volume marketplace sellers

Overview

Linnworks is a London-based commerce operations platform used by online retailers that sell across marketplaces and web stores. In September 2022 it announced the acquisition of SkuVault, a Louisville, Kentucky provider of inventory and warehouse management software; Marlin Equity Partners became majority shareholder of the combined company. At that time Linnworks said it processed more than US$8 billion in gross merchandise value a year, and SkuVault reported over 1,200 retailer customers[20].

The combined product line is sold as the Linnworks package and as SkuVault Core, the latter available only in North America. Linnworks also sells Linnworks Listing, Linnworks WMS, SkuVault Enhanced Warehouse and a Linnworks Forecasting module[19]. The platform’s strength is centralising orders from many channels, routing them to the right stock location and keeping listings and stock counts aligned, which suits sellers whose bottleneck is order throughput rather than purchasing or manufacturing.

Pricing is not published. Linnworks states that plans are priced on monthly order volume rather than revenue, with no percentage fees, that overage applies if a tier is exceeded, that modules are optional, and that onboarding is a one-off fee set by scope[19]. No free trial is mentioned on the pricing page. Buyers with few orders but complex production will find more relevant functionality in Katana, Fishbowl or inFlow Manufacturing.
