FST Corp. Joins Shopify Plus Platform; Projects Improved Operating Efficiencies

BOULDER, CO, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FST Corp. (Nasdaq: KBSX), a leading manufacturer and marketer of steel and graphite golf shafts and a provider of other golf-related services, today announced it has initiated the rollout of Shopify Plus, a scalable SaaS (Software as a Service) e-commerce platform that helps large businesses automate operations, streamline workflows, and expand into new markets.

Shopify Plus is expected to provide FST with several benefits, including:

• Consolidation of all Company commerce platforms – DTC, B2B, and POS – under one umbrella. DTC and B2B consolidations have been completed and are operational, with POS anticipated to be completed in Q3.
• Full Integration with the Company’s ERP accounting software.
• Real-time tracking of DTC performance, including instant analytics on the effectiveness of Company promotions.
• Improved tracking on origins of Company website traffic, and provision of input on most cost-efficient marketing and advertising strategies to successfully target these sectors.
• Enabling direct sales via social media posts, allowing the Company to monetize increased attention better after golf tournament wins.
• Allowing dealers to view the status of their past and current orders and pay via the portal, increasing the Company’s accounts receivable and reducing the Company's time spent on customer service.
• Automatic holding of past-due orders until an account is brought current, producing improved Company cash flow.
• POS integration, which, when complete, will allow real-time tracking of products in the Company’s KBS Golf Experience store in Carlsbad, California.

“We are very excited to join the Shopify Plus Platform,” said FST chief executive David Chuang. “This move, we believe, will help streamline our operations and reduce operating expenses, especially those relating to marketing and customer service."

“With its multiple automation, tracking, and analytic features, the platform will give us more time to design, test, produce, and sell our products, rather than manually analyze an ever-increasing assortment of administrative and customer-related data."

“The bottom line, we anticipate, will be a meaningful improvement in both our top and bottom-line performance in 2025 and beyond.”
