WSN´s industry leading platform includes the following modules:

FORT e-commerce system: A comprehensive, seamlessly integrated order management system, providing all the tools necessary for managing an online wine business. The system provides wine club management, compliance, content management, robust reporting and other important tools.

FORT Compliance: Wineries can subscribe to the direct-ship compliance module to automate all direct ship compliance reporting needs.

Three-tier clearing: WSN's platform powers efficient, 3-tier compliant direct-to-consumer wine delivery systems that enable producers and marketing companies to reach consumers in states that prohibit interstate shipping. At the same time, the system enables wineries to dramatically increase gross profits. Producers effectively increase their gross profits by as much as 300% while significantly increasing their addressable direct consumer market. At the same time, consumers have access to premium products direct from the producer, which are very often not distributed in local wine shops.

FORT Warehouse: WSN's warehouse platform is a comprehensive warehouse management system designed specifically for direct to consumer shipping in the wine industry. The system is entirely web-based, and fully integrated with UPS, FedEx and Golden State Overnight. WSN's Warehouse module enables the fulfillment companies' winery clients to log in at any time to see inventory levels, check tracking numbers for any order, schedule deliveries, etc. The system also makes it easy for fulfillment companies to bill wineries by shipment type (club vs. daily shipments, for example), manage and charge separately for returns, generate monthly invoices, and much more.
