Employee Store Software that runs your whole program
Employee store software lets you launch branded company stores with budget controls, artwork proofing, and real-time order ops. It runs on the same platform that powers your business-to-business commerce, Product Information Management, and supply chain.
Your store program is only as strong as the ops behind it
Employee allowances tracked in spreadsheets. Overspend detected only after orders ship. Finance reconciles manually every month.
Proofs emailed back and forth. Approvals lost in inboxes. Wrong logo version goes to print and the order reruns.
Your store tool has no idea what your enterprise resource planning system holds. Inventory, fulfillment, and supplier data sync on a delay, or not at all.
No central audit trail. Rogue orders, unapproved products, and unchecked access erode brand standards quietly.
Which department ordered the most? Which products earned margin? Your store tool has no report that answers either question.
Each division or brand has its own store login, its own product list, and its own support overhead. One update means ten logins.
One platform for every online company store you run
Employee store software is Redefine's module for launching and managing branded employee and corporate merchandise stores. This branded merchandise store engine is built as a native module inside the Program Store platform, not bolted on.
That means your online company store shares a product catalog with your business-to-business storefront, your Product Information Management system, your order management layer, and your supplier operations: in the same admin, with the same role-based access model you already use.
Everything a branded merchandise store program needs: nothing extra required
Branded storefronts for every audience
Launch a separate branded merchandise store for corporate employees, new hire kits, sales teams, uniform programs, or dealer networks. Each store gets its own theme, product assortment, and access rules: managed from one admin.
Dealer-branded storefronts
Give each dealer their own co-branded store drawing from your master product catalog. They sell their assortment: you control brand standards and product content from the top level.
Allowances enforced at checkout
Set per-employee, per-department, or per-role budgets. Allowances apply before the order is placed: no overspend, no manual reconciliation, no finance headaches.
See budget and redemption controls →Structured approval flows
Every artwork request routes through a defined approver chain. Versions are locked. No order moves to production until the right person signs off: tracked in a full audit log.
See proof and approval workflows →Store analytics without a business intelligence tool
Department spend, product velocity, redemption rates, and margin by store: built into the admin. No additional analytics license or data export required.
Program store, business-to-business commerce, and direct-to-consumer: same platform, same admin
Your employee store software runs on the exact same platform as your business-to-business portal and direct-to-consumer storefront. Product data, pricing, inventory, and order ops are shared natively: no sync, no middleware, no double data entry.
Single sign-on-gated employee online store access
Gate any employee online store behind your identity provider. Employees see only the products and prices their role allows. Department budgets apply automatically on login.

From $14M to $90M across 30 branded stores
Parsons Kellogg
A major provider of promotional products, corporate apparel, and branded merchandise: operating a large multi-store ecommerce footprint with over 1 million inventory items across 30 branded stores.
No unified visibility across 30 separate stores. Manual processes, fragmented integrations, and limited analytics constrained warehouse operations and slowed decision-making at scale.
Redefine delivered a headless ecommerce architecture with custom Power BI integration, Dynamics enterprise resource planning write-back, RESTful application programming interface layer connecting all 30 stores, and real-time inventory and financial reporting across the entire operation.
Annual revenue scaled from $14M to over $90M. Unified reporting across 30 stores. Operational efficiency improved through automation and real-time analytics. The platform positioned them as an industry leader in promotional apparel.
Where typical corporate store software stops
Most corporate store software does stores well. What it does poorly is everything that keeps the program running: budgets, proofing, ops integration, governance, and analytics.

Tell us your situation →Questions buyers ask before choosing corporate store software
Yes. Redefine lets you manage unlimited branded stores from a single admin. Each store has its own theme, product assortment, access rules, and budget configuration. One admin update applies across every store you control.
Allowances are enforced before the order is placed. You set budgets by employee, department, or role. Employees see their remaining balance in the store. When the allowance is exhausted, the overage goes to their payment method or the order is blocked: your choice. Finance sees real-time spend without any export or reconciliation step.
Yes. The platform has native connectors for Dynamics 365, NetSuite, SAP, and other major enterprise resource planning systems. Supplier catalog data feeds in through the Supplier Catalog Management module. There is no middleware required: all data connections are direct and synchronous.
Company stores are for internal employee and corporate merchandise programs: typically with budget controls, HR integration, and a gated single sign-on login. Team stores serve external groups like sports teams, schools, and organizations: usually with a defined open window and group order collection. Both run on the same platform and can be managed from the same admin. See Company Store versus Team Store for a full comparison.
A standard company store with Product Information Management import, budget controls, artwork proofing, and single sign-on gating goes live in 10 days from signed scope. More complex programs with multiple stores, enterprise resource planning integration, and supplier onboarding typically run 3 to 4 weeks. We scope it precisely before any work starts.
