SHOPniISU (Shopping Hub of Products Networked in Isabela State University) is an e-commerce system (website and Android application) that runs efficiently on all platforms. It is designed with simplicity and user-friendliness in mind. It was developed specifically for Isabela State University - Roxas Campus products and its partners. Currently, the university has CRGM (Campus Resource Generation Management) and R&D (Research & Development), and its partners are Saplot and Ating Tindahan by LGU Roxas. The four shops, which operate their own businesses, will utilize this next-generation e-commerce platform. All products ensure that you receive high-quality and trusted items made by the university and its partners.

ShopniISU was developed as an innovative response to the growing need for local businesses and artisans to reach a wider audience in the digital age. Designed for the Isabela State University Roxas Campus and its partners, the system serves as a digital bridge connecting quality local products with consumers nationwide. The Isabela State University Roxas Campus, located in the heart of Roxas, Isabela, has a rich history of fostering education, innovation, and community engagement. Over the years, it has been a hub for research, development, and skills training in various fields, including agriculture, resource management, and handicrafts. ShopniISU embodies this legacy by integrating the craftsmanship of Saplot, the resourcefulness of CRGM, Campus Research and Development Knowledge Technology Management (R&D), and the partnership of LGU Roxas. This synergy ensures that the platform offers products that are not only high-quality but also deeply rooted in the traditions and values of the Roxas community. Whether you’re looking for unique handicrafts, fresh agricultural products, or official school merchandise, ShopniISU provides a seamless shopping experience while supporting local industries and promoting sustainability.

The Idea Behind This

Inspired by the suggestion from our capstone teacher, we originally planned to launch this system across all Isabela State University campuses throughout the province. Although other campuses loved the idea, due to time constraints and the frequent storms and typhoons during the "Ber months" in the Philippines—especially in Isabela province—we decided to begin with Roxas campus and its partners. Our goal was to develop a platform that is both powerful and a pleasure to use. This system was developed based on international standard Human Interface Guidelines, and we have ensured smooth usability for all users, even those experiencing technical issues. With the "shake to buy" feature, users can simply shake their phone to purchase a product.

The Benefits of Using This

By choosing our platform, you gain access to a robust and user-friendly interface optimized for both performance and aesthetics. Enjoy smooth animations, fast load times, and a design that adapts beautifully to any device—ensuring an unparalleled digital experience. Features include a community hub (social media), a secure system with verifications, alerts for notifications, security logs, and more.
