MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 29, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SPS Commerce (Nasdaq:SPSC), a leading provider of on-demand supply chain management solutions, today announced that it has partnered with Shotfarm, a free, centralized platform where thousands of vendors manage and share product images and information.

Retail Universe members with digital assets on Shotfarm will demonstrate their e-commerce readiness and provide the content needed to place their products onto online retail sites faster.

"We are delighted to partner with Shotfarm, an innovator in helping suppliers of all sizes provide the images and product information needed for successful e-commerce," said Archie Black, president and CEO of SPS Commerce.
