Shopp is a WordPress theme to help you build a quality online store that is search engine optimized, feature rich, and can be deployed quickly.

You can successfully connect your Shopp store with ShipWorks using a plug-in that connects via WordPress. Just think of the plug-in as a bridge, connecting ShipWorks with your Shopp store. This plug-in was created by ADV Web Design and can be downloaded here.
