In 2026, eCommerce brands can no longer afford to spend hours on manual product listing. With customer expectations rising and competition growing, the brands that win are the ones that automate smartly — starting with their own internal operations.
This is the story of how Luvvih did exactly that with iNextLabs' WhatsApp automation.
About Luvvih
Luvvih is a US-based online apparel brand specializing in fairtrade sarees and lehengas imported directly from India. From humble beginnings to becoming one of the fastest-growing South Asian fashion brands in the US, Luvvih has built a loyal customer base through quality products and a strong digital presence.
As their business scaled, Luvvih quickly realized that manual processes particularly around product listing and WhatsApp to Shopify data entry were becoming a serious bottleneck. To stay competitive in the B2C eCommerce market, they needed a smarter, faster, and more automated approach.
The Challenge: Manual WhatsApp to Shopify Product Listing
Luvvih's primary sales channel was WhatsApp for Business a growing trend in conversational commerce that allows brands to connect directly with customers. As their catalogue grew, so did the complexity of managing it.
Here's what their team was dealing with every day:
Products came in multiple variants different sizes and colours and each one had to be manually listed on Shopify by fetching product details and uploading images that were sent via WhatsApp. This manual Shopify product listing process was time-consuming, error-prone, and completely unsustainable at scale.
The core challenges were:
- Incorrect data entry causing product listing errors
- Slow order processing due to manual workflows
- Unreliable WhatsApp to Shopify integration
- Team spending more time fixing errors than improving customer experience
- Inability to scale without significantly increasing headcount
Luvvih needed a WhatsApp Shopify automation solution one that could automatically sync their product catalogue without manual intervention.
