About The Client

Our client is a renowned fashion retailer based in France, offering a wide range of clothing, accessories, and footwear for men, women, and children. They have a significant online presence and a loyal customer base.

Challenge

The client’s existing webstore operated on Shopware 5 and required regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance, security, and functionality. Additionally, the client wanted to enhance the design of their webstore by implementing a new theme and custom features to improve the user experience and integrate their internal ERP system.

Solution

Methodology

To effectively maintain and enhance the client’s webstore, we followed an Agile methodology combined with a monthly retainer engagement model. This allowed us to address ongoing maintenance needs, implement design changes, and develop custom features in an efficient and timely manner.

Maintenance and Support

Our team provided regular maintenance and support services to ensure the webstore’s smooth operation. This involved monitoring performance, addressing bugs and issues, and applying necessary updates and security patches.

New Theme Implementation

In collaboration with the client’s design team, we implemented a new theme for the webstore. The theme was selected based on the client’s preferences and the fashion industry’s design trends. We customized the theme to align with the client’s brand identity and provided an enhanced user experience.

Design Changes

We made specific design changes to further improve the aesthetics and user-friendliness of the webstore. This included optimizing the layout, typography, and color scheme to create a visually appealing and cohesive brand experience.

Project stages

1

Individual Tabs for Product Detail Pages

We developed a custom feature that allowed the client to add individual tabs on product detail pages. This feature enabled them to provide additional information, such as size guides, fabric details, and care instructions, in a structured manner.

3

Quick Product Editor

We developed a custom feature that enabled the client to edit product details, such as pricing, stock levels, and descriptions, directly from the frontend. This streamlined the product management process and improved efficiency.

2

Manufacturer in Listing and Slider

To highlight the brands featured in the webstore, we implemented a custom feature that displayed the manufacturer’s logo in the product listing and slider sections. This helped users identify their favorite brands quickly.

4

Integration with Internal ERP System

We integrated the webstore with the client’s internal ERP system to ensure real-time synchronization of data, including inventory levels, order information, and customer details. This integration facilitated seamless operations and enhanced customer service.
