Nº 01 — The Build

What I'm shipping

01.

Order forms that look like fashion buying works.

Build buyer-facing order forms around styles, colors, sizes, seasonal drops, and wholesale quantities instead of forcing buyers into a retail product page or a spreadsheet attachment.

02.

Prepacks, size runs, and MOQs built in.

Define reusable templates like 1S / 2M / 2L / 1XL, case packs, increments, and minimums. Buyers see the rules while ordering, before the math turns into cleanup work.

03.

Clean import and draft-order outputs.

Review the submitted order, expand prepacks into individual variants, and generate a clean draft order or import-ready file without typing every size/color quantity back into your system.

Nº 02 — From the Floor

A note from Kyle

It's Friday night. A stockist sends back another edited spreadsheet.

One buyer wants 240 units across five sizes. Another wants prepacks. A third changed two colors but not the total. The order is real, but now someone has to check the MOQ math, expand the size runs, and re-key every variant into the order system by hand.

I spent years in fashion wholesale manufacturing, production side, inventory management. I've seen the complexity from the other side: the SKU/size/color matrix, the retailer-specific size-run mixes, the prepack logic, the minimums that protect production. What looks like chaos is usually a system trapped in the wrong format.

Hemly is starting with that format problem: fashion wholesale order forms that turn buyer intent into clean operational data. Not a giant B2B suite. Not another generic quote button. A buyer-friendly way to collect size-run and prepack orders, validate the rules, and turn the result into a draft order or clean import for the system you use.

If this is the part of wholesale you still run through spreadsheets, start with the demo. It shows the Hemly workflow: line sheet, buyer grid, validation, and a clean order output ready for the next system.

Nº 04 — Frequently Asked

Before you view the demo

What happens when I open the demo?
You’ll see how Hemly turns a fashion line sheet into a buyer-friendly size/color order grid, validates minimums and deadlines, and prepares clean order data for draft-order creation or import.
Is Hemly live yet?
Not yet. I'm narrowing the product around real fashion order sheets before building the app and integrations. The goal is to design from actual wholesale workflows, not guesses.
Who is this for?
Kidswear, swimwear, activewear, and apparel brands that already sell wholesale through size runs, prepacks, case packs, or MOQ rules—and need cleaner handoff into Shopify, ERP, or back-office systems.
Is this another app that injects code into my theme?
No. The product direction is Shopify-native and theme-safe. The order form should live through app surfaces and app proxy patterns, not by editing your theme files.
How is this different from SparkLayer, BSS, or quote apps?
Those are broader B2B suites or generic quote tools. Hemly is starting smaller and deeper: fashion wholesale order forms with size grids, prepacks, MOQ validation, and clean draft-order/import outputs.
What if I already sell on Faire or use line sheets?
Keep them if they work. Hemly is for direct wholesale orders where buyers already know you, send you quantities, and someone still has to turn the order into clean operational data.
Who's building this?
Kyle. I worked in fashion wholesale manufacturing, production side and inventory management. Email me directly at [email protected]; I read every message.
