Stocky closed on 31 August 2026
Stocky has closed. Bring your purchase orders and suppliers with you
Caravan orders from your suppliers, receives what arrives and works out when to reorder. Bring your Stocky purchase orders across from its CSV exports: suppliers, costs and delivery dates come with them, and your stock on hand isn’t touched.
Bringing your history across
- In Stocky, open Reports and download the Purchase Orders report as CSV, or download orders one at a time with each order’s Download button. A SKU or variant report with costs can come too. Do it while Stocky is still open read-only: Shopify keeps it that way for at least 90 days after it closed.
- Create your Caravan account: it’s free to start and needs no card. Then open Warehouses and add the place you hold stock; one is enough. The deliveries in your history are recorded against it, so the import asks for one first.
- In Caravan, open Purchase Orders and choose Import from Stocky. Pick the file and check its columns: Stocky never published its export format, so any column that isn’t recognised is matched by hand.
- Look at the preview: what will be created, what already exists, and what is left out and why. Nothing is saved until you confirm it. Import as many files as you like, in any order: an order already imported is skipped, never doubled.
What comes across
- Every order, with its Stocky number (as STOCKY-1042), its dates and its status.
- Open orders stay open, so you can receive them here when the goods arrive.
- Suppliers, rebuilt from the orders (Stocky can't export them), each with a lead time measured from when its orders were placed and arrived.
- Each product's latest cost and supplier, filling in what isn't set yet. Nothing you've set is overwritten.
- Products your orders name that you don't have yet are added, unless you switch that off in the import.
- Deliveries, as receipts dated when the goods arrived, so on-time rates start from your real history.
History doesn’t change your stock. Those deliveries were sold or counted long ago, so the import records them without adding a unit to what you have on hand, and none of it is sent to Shopify. What you have now comes from the stock levels you enter or import as CSV. Nothing is sent to any supplier either.
What Stocky did, and where it is here
- Purchase orders
- Create, send and receive purchase orders, partial deliveries included. Sending one emails your supplier a link to it in the supplier portal, where they can confirm it without an account or password.
- Receiving
- Each delivery is a receipt dated when it arrived, and the units received are added to your stock here.
- Suppliers
- Suppliers with lead times, and per product a cost, a minimum order quantity and an order multiple. On-time rates and real lead times come from what actually arrived.
- Forecasts and suggested orders
- A suggested reorder point for each product, worked out from your sales, each supplier's lead time and the in-stock level you choose, with the arithmetic shown, seasonal patterns included. The Replenishment page then lists what has reached its reorder point and how many to order, rounded up to each supplier's minimum and case size, gathered by supplier, and drafts the purchase order for you to edit and send.The quantity is the reorder point plus a month of demand, less what you hold and have on order: a starting point to check, not a forecast of next season. Your sales, lead times and supplier terms must be on record for it to work.
- Costs
- Each product's unit cost, plus landed cost per order: record freight, duty and other charges and each line gets a landed unit cost.
- Stocktakes
- Cycle counts one product at a time, with the difference recorded, or a whole count imported as CSV.
- Transfers
- Move stock between your warehouses here.
- Reports
- ABC classification, supplier scorecards and sourcing risk, with purchase orders and stock exportable as CSV.
What it costs
The Free plan ($0) keeps what Stocky was used for day to day: suppliers with lead times, minimum order quantities and costs; products, stock levels and multiple locations; suggested reorder points worked out from your demand and lead times, with the arithmetic shown; a Replenishment page that lists what to order today, grouped by supplier, with the quantity rounded to each supplier's minimum and case size and a draft purchase order in one click; unlimited purchase orders: create, send and receive, partial deliveries included; CSV imports; the audit log. It allows up to 2 team members, up to 2 warehouse locations and up to 500 active SKUs.
Importing from Stocky is open on every plan, the Free plan included. A product on an order that is still open, or one placed in the last 90 days, counts toward your plan’s active-SKU limit; older history doesn’t.
Paid plans, from Starter at $49/mo, add the AI agent: reviews of your stock and suppliers, proposals ready to approve, supplier emails and calls, requests for quote and negotiation. New accounts start with a 14-day free trial and no card. See every plan.
What Caravan doesn’t do
Better to know now than after you’ve moved.
- Print barcode labels.
- Run inside Shopify POS: receiving and counting happen in the web app.
- Sync with your Shopify store yet. For now, stock levels and sales history come in as CSV files.
- Keep a weighted-average cost. A product has one unit cost; receiving doesn't recalculate it.
- Import Stocky's stocktakes or adjustment history. A stocktake file is recognised and turned away, because an old count would overwrite what you have on hand now.
- Bring over suppliers' email addresses or phone numbers, which Stocky can't export. Add them before sending orders.
- Count many products in one stocktake session with a variance report.
- Read from Stocky directly: its API stopped when it closed, so the import works from the CSV files you download.
