Vendor Management using Electro Theme
Electro is a WooCommerce theme and it supports all features of WooCommerce. Multi-vendor management is not a default feature of WooCommerce. However there are WooCommerce extensions like Dokan, WC Vendors, WCFM Marketplace and Multi Vendor Marketplace by Webkul that allow you to extend WooCommerce into a multi-vendor platform. Electro supports the above mentioned plugins. So, yes you can build a multi-vendor website using Electro if you are familiar with the above plugins.
Having said that if there are any issues with Dokan or WC Vendors apart from UI issues, we cannot help fix it. This is because while the theme is compatible with these plugins, they are essentially third-party plugins and are not covered by our support policy. However if there is any UI issues like a broken form while using these plugins, we will help you fix it.
