A local shopping destination
What Is One Lane Market?
One Lane Market is a local marketplace where customers will be able to shop products from multiple independent vendors under one roof.
Instead of every seller needing a separate store, checkout system, website, and inventory process, One Lane Market brings those sellers together in one shopping destination.
Customers will be able to discover handmade items, boutique products, home décor, gifts, vintage merchandise, collectibles, books, tools, electronics, seasonal items, and more from independent sellers.
The connection
How Does SolentX Fit In?
A multi-vendor market involves much more than ringing up a sale.
The owner must manage vendor applications, vendor information, products, inventory, booth locations, checkout, sales attribution, commissions, payouts, reports, and the public website.
SolentX brings those parts together in one connected system. I built it because I needed a practical way to manage those responsibilities in my own market without relying on several disconnected programs and spreadsheets.
Who it is for
Built for Multi-Vendor Businesses
SolentX is built for vendor markets, antique malls, flea markets, consignment stores, maker markets, collectibles stores, seasonal markets, and other businesses that manage products and sales for multiple independent sellers.
The ownership connection
One Owner. One Market. One Connected Platform.
I am building both One Lane Market and SolentX.
One Lane Market is the vendor market I am developing in Rickman, Tennessee. SolentX is the software I built to help manage it.
The same platform being built around my own market is available to other vendor-market owners.
A problem I needed to solve
Why I Built SolentX
Before SolentX became a software platform, it was a problem I needed to solve for my own business.
I wanted one place to manage vendors, products, inventory, checkout, reports, booth assignments, public listings, and vendor communication.
I did not want to depend on several disconnected systems or repeatedly enter the same information in different places.
That is why I built SolentX.

Built around real needs
This Is More Than a Software Demo
One Lane Market is a real business being developed around SolentX.
The workflows on this page are not based only on assumptions. They are based on the actual decisions and responsibilities involved in preparing and operating our own vendor market.
When something feels confusing, slow, or unnecessarily complicated while preparing our market, it gives us a clear reason to improve SolentX.
When we improve vendor applications, our market benefits.
When we improve checkout, our future customers benefit.
When we improve reporting, market owners and vendors benefit.
When we improve the public marketplace, local sellers benefit.
Doing the same work
Built by Someone Doing the Same Work
I am not only building software for vendor-market owners. I am also working through the process of creating and running a vendor market myself.
That means I have to think about the same things other owners do. Those real responsibilities shape how SolentX is designed.
- How vendors apply
- How products are entered
- How booth locations are managed
- How checkout stays fast
- How sales reach the correct vendor
- How commissions and payouts are calculated
- How customers find products online
- How reports help the owner make decisions
Learning as we build
Our Market Helps Improve SolentX
Building and configuring One Lane Market gives us a practical way to evaluate SolentX.
We can use the system in our own market, identify processes that need improvement, and apply what we learn to the software. That means improvements are based on real needs, not only feature ideas.

About the Builder
I’m Brent Cross, the owner of One Lane Market and the developer behind SolentX.
I created SolentX because I wanted one connected system for managing vendors, products, checkout, inventory, reports, booth assignments, public listings, and the other responsibilities involved in running a vendor market.
I am building the software around the same real needs I face while developing my own market.

One connected system
Everything Works Together
SolentX connects the different parts of a vendor market. A vendor application becomes a vendor record. That vendor can be connected to a booth, products, sales, commissions, reports, payouts, and a public vendor page.
Products entered into the system can be used at checkout, tracked in inventory, shown in reports, and displayed through the public marketplace.

This reduces duplicate work and helps the owner manage the business from one connected platform.
Firsthand understanding
Why This Matters to Other Market Owners
SolentX customers are not being asked to depend on software built without firsthand understanding of their business.
The same platform available to customers is being built around the needs of our own market. When SolentX improves, One Lane Market benefits. When One Lane Market reveals a better way to handle something, SolentX improves.
We are solving many of the same problems our customers need to solve.
