Who is Helium for?

Built for Businesses That Move Physical Products

Ecommerce sellers, wholesale distributors, light manufacturers, and 3PL operators who need unified operations — not another tool to manage.

Multi-Channel Retailers

Selling across Shopify, Amazon, eBay, and wholesale simultaneously. One system for inventory, orders, and listings — the number you see is the right number, across every channel.

  • D2C brands on Shopify + Amazon
  • Marketplace-first sellers on eBay + TikTok Shop
  • Retailers managing 3+ sales channels

Wholesale & Distribution

Importers and distributors supplying retail customers, B2B accounts, and their own direct channels. Purchase orders, goods-in, bin-rack storage, and B2B portal ordering — unified, not stitched together.

  • FMCG and consumer goods distributors
  • Import businesses supplying UK retail
  • Wholesale operators running a trade portal

Light Manufacturers

Businesses that assemble, kit, or manufacture products before sale. Helium supports bills of materials, work orders, and production scheduling alongside a full warehouse and commerce stack.

  • Assembly and kitting operations
  • Brands manufacturing their own products
  • Contract manufacturers supplying multiple clients

3PL Warehouse Operators

Built for multi-tenant operations from the ground up. Separate data, separate branding, automated billing events, shared infrastructure. Client count isn't a pricing dimension.

  • 3PL warehouses with 5–50 client accounts
  • Fulfilment centres handling pick, pack, and dispatch
  • Operators offering value-added services like kitting and returns

The Outgrowing Seller

Running 3–6 separate tools that don't talk to each other. Spending hours weekly on manual data reconciliation. You know the current setup is breaking — Helium replaces the toolstack at a lower total cost and gives your team their time back.

  • Teams using spreadsheets for stock and orders
  • Businesses paying £300–£800/mo across fragmented subscriptions
  • Companies struggling to reconcile data across multiple apps

The Scaling Operation

Finance or ops leadership pushing for a proper system. You need unified operations and real financial clarity, but you don't need a six-figure implementation project. Helium gives you the operational depth, live in days.

  • Operations managers needing real-time operational clarity
  • Finance teams wanting unified financial reporting
  • Founders who need answers without building separate BI tools
