PDG Shopping Mall 1.0 Allows Merchants to Manage Multiple

Storefronts with a Single Cart

Atlanta-based PDG Software, Inc., a leader in Internet commerce solutions for small to mid-size companies, announced today the release of PDG Shopping Mall 1.0. According to PDG Software, this product will streamline online merchants' management of multiple storefronts using a single shopping cart. PDG Shopping Mall provides one-stop shopping on the Web.

David Snyder, founder and President of PDG Software, Inc., said this technology is consistent with the company's commitment to the development of software that offers advanced functionality and customization to the merchant. According to Snyder, "PDG Shopping Mall 1.0 is just as modular as our popular Shopping Cart 1.50 software. At the same time, it allows merchants to offer multiple storefronts with unlimited products to their online shoppers." Snyder refers to the ability for a mall administrator to customize each individual storefront, without limiting product quantity able to be carried per store.
