Bagisto, AvoRed and Aimeos are currently the top opensource laravel eCommerce package that have reinvented the wheel and kept going strong over time.
Laravel being the youngest of all PHP frameworks has quickly made its way as the best choice of PHP frameworks. It's the simplicity, clarity and flexibility of the framework that has also paved the way for many true Laravel eCommerce packages.
The amalgamation of features like secure authorization, high scalability, customizable along with wide community support has made Laravel one of popular choice for eCommerce development.
Developing an eCommerce project requires a thorough understanding of the eCommerce ecosystem and right data work-flows. Since its inception in 2014, there have been many eCommerce packages but only a few remain alive till date with regular updates and changes.
Let's dive into each of the packages one-by-one.
1. Bagisto
The Open Source Laravel eCommerce has very rapidly caught the eyes of Laravel Community and offers Multi-Warehouse Inventory out of the box.

The code-driven approach, community on open Forums & Groups and easily customisable functionality make it very easier to get support and set up your eCommerce Shop on Bagisto.

Hi Saurav
Thank you for your article about Laravel e-commerce packages. Can you do us a favor and link Aimeos to our Laravel page instead of the home page?
aimeos.org/Laravel
Thank you very much
Tom
Okay, done. Kindly share this article on your social channels.
Thanks but can you please use "aimeos.org/Laravel" at the top of the article and the beginning of the Aimeos section? The page behind the redirect may change.
Done.

Hi Saurav,
What do you think about Vanilo eCommerce framework for Laravel?
Hi Roman. I have just tried Vanilo demo from github repo. It is very inspiring that it works with Laravel as a package and to the best keep laravel itself intact. Great job. Maybe I am doing it wrong but could a product have multiple properties values? For instance a mattress model, to have various sizes like KQDS and KS? When I test-drove it one listing (sku) can only choose one value per property. You comment would be appreciated.
Hi Roman,
Yes just checked, thatz also a great platform, is it somewhat related to Aimeos?
Hi, Author of Vanilo here. Vanilo is not related to Aimeos.
We happen to know each other with Norbert (the author of Aimeos) from Laracon events in the last year. We also shared some ideas but that's all, the two projects are independent.
Thanks for the clarification Attila, btw nice to meet you.
🙇 😉
I'm not sure about that.
Hello,
I'm not sure how you made your conclusion based on, Did you check Laraship eCommerce?
Laraship e-commerce: Elite Laravel Online Store with amazing features
it has 4 demos available
ecommerce.laraship.com
ecommerce2.laraship.com
ecommerce3.laraship.com
http:/amazon.laraship.com
one of its features :
1) Multiple Themes Available
2) More than 10 Payment Gateways
3) Latest Laravel 5.7 version with Bootstrap 4 themes
4) Powerful Search Engine
5) Marketplace Multi-Vendor Version
6) Simple - Variable - Bundled - Digital - Content Access Product Types
7) Premium Support with QA forum
Stop spamming your commercial junk. The 3 mentioned OSS projects are in a totally different league in terms of code quality, architecture, featureset and robustness. Laraship (like most shitty products on codecanyon) is a simple product, perhaps suitable for a quick-n-dirty one-off project, but it cannot even remotely compete with the projects the post mentions.
Is Laraship an open source project?
No, I think you havent specified whether opensource or not, also the cost is $39 include 6 monthes support
Thanks for the information.
Hi,
I would suggest you to have a look at Multi-Vendor Shopping Cart Software Package provided by Laravel Ecommerce with the best in class features like
SEO Friendly
Multiple Payment Gateways Integration
Multi-Vendor Platform
Delivery Tracking
and a lot more

Multi warehouse and multi channel are not a USP of Bagisto according to the Aimeos page: aimeos.org/Laravel
Aimeos seems to be able to handle much more products than any other ecommerce package and has the most payment options to choose from
Well, certainly Aimeos has been there from a very long time and has evolved to be a good framework.
Here is a more detailed comparison between Aimeos and Bagisto:
dev.to/shop/aimeos-vs-bagisto-comp...
can I find a package that allow any customer to add his products as a seller ?
multiple salesmen share the site
Well, Yes. There is an multi-vendor extension of Bagisto. Here first you sign up as a customer, thereafter if you want to sell your products too, you can apply as seller also. After the admin has approved, you can then sell your products on the marketplace. Check this for more: bagisto.com/en/laravel-multi-vendo...
can we change the language ???
Hi Pahrul, which language you are referring to and in which context?
the persian language to english...
