\nNuORDER by Lightspeed, a leading global commerce platform that enables retailers and brands to connect, collaborate, and make smarter buying decisions, today announced the launch of Order Trends<\/i><\/a>,<\/a> a cutting-edge feature that delivers visibility into top-performing products, categories, colors, and size curves\u2014right within the NuORDER shopping experience. This innovation empowers retailers and buyers to make smarter assortment decisions, while helping brands drive product visibility, conversion, and revenue.<\/p>\n
\nBy surfacing aggregated data from submitted USD orders across the platform, the new features reveal what top-performing products other retailers are buying\u2014including details like category, size, and color\u2014making it easier for buyers to stock confidently, discover new styles, and reduce risk. This gives buyers a competitive advantage: the ability to back purchases with real-world performance insights rather than relying on gut instinct alone.<\/p>\n
\nEarly results already demonstrate its value: in 76 days, participating brands saw approximately a 10% increase in average order value (AOV)\u00b9. These results reinforce NuORDER\u2019s leadership in ushering in a new era of insight-led commerce, where decisions are powered by data, not guesswork.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cOrder Trends brings the \u2018science\u2019 to the art of buying,\u201d said Chris Akrimi, General Manager of B2B at NuORDER by Lightspeed. \u201cBy giving both brands and retailers insight into what\u2019s selling across our B2B platform, we\u2019re making wholesale buying more intelligent, more efficient, and more profitable.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThe launch of Order Trends reflects NuORDER\u2019s continued commitment to wholesale technology innovation\u2014and comes at a time when retailers are actively seeking better ways to work, sell, and grow. According to Lightspeed\u2019s recent Retail Sentiment Survey\u00b2, 49.6% of retailers say they want to reduce the manual work required to access reports and insights. Meanwhile, 48.8% are looking for better visibility into what areas of their business can be optimized. Retailers currently spend an average of 20 hours per week ordering and restocking products, making the need for time-saving tools and intelligent workflows more urgent than ever. According to NuORDER\u2019s recent Buyer preference survey\u00b3, 68% of retailers use intuition\/past experience to plan what inventory to buy, where Order Trends can now give them data-driven insights allowing them to optimize and make purchasing decisions more confidently.<\/p>\n
\nIn fact, the Lightspeed Retail Sentiment Survey further revealed that 36.6% of retailers want to improve how they discover and add new types of products they don\u2019t currently stock\u2014underscoring the demand for more data-informed, exploratory buying.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cIt\u2019s not just about smarter buying\u2014it\u2019s about faster buying too,\u201d said Akrimi. \u201cAs retailers navigate crowded marketplaces, Order Trends helps reduce decision fatigue and streamline workflows. High-performing products are highlighted during the shopping journey, allowing buyers to quickly identify what\u2019s working and curate assortments in less time. That confidence translates into action, accelerating sell-in, driving higher sell-through and saving retailers valuable hours each week.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nFor wholesaling brands, the benefits are equally powerful. Order Trends automatically amplifies top-selling SKUs, driving greater exposure and reducing time spent on product education or back-and-forth communication. As buyers make faster, more confident decisions, brands benefit from quicker conversions and stronger alignment with market demand. They also gain access to rich, actionable trend insights that can inform product strategy, marketing, and sales conversations.<\/p>\n
\nAnd the value doesn\u2019t stop at the individual brand or buyer level. 47.7% of retailers surveyed\u00b2 say they want to expand their customer reach and discover new growth opportunities as a long-term goal. Order Trends helps facilitate those connections\u2014giving retailers confidence to explore new merchandising possibilities, and brands the visibility they need to reach high-intent buyers at scale.<\/p>\n
\nOrder Trends is currently available to NuORDER buyers submitting orders in USD, with expansion to other currencies planned in future updates.<\/p>\n
