The idea for ShopFactory shopping cart software was born in 1995 — hatched between Steffan Klein and Michael Veith, the owners of 3D3.COM Pty Ltd — the makers of ShopFactory.
Back in 1995 the very first Website editors were being launched — and e-Commerce was still a foreign word to all but a select few.
There were no ecommerce solutions for non-programmers available - and companies were paying hundreds of thousands of Dollars to create the world's first online shops. Only to go broke when discovering that back then very few customers were actually using the Internet to buy something.
