Project description

The task

LLOYD Shoes, a traditional company with over 130 years of history, decided to open a new chapter in the company's development in 2017.

The aim was to develop a powerful e-commerce offering that would integrate seamlessly into the existing bricks-and-mortar business. To achieve this, LLOYD needed a centralised backend that bundles all sales channels, ensures a standardised database and meets digital customer requirements.

Solution

The realisation

After a six-month internal test phase with orders from the company's own concept stores, the new online shop was launched in January 2018 - supported by collana diva as the central platform for all retail processes.

The ERP system bundles the data from all channels and ensures end-to-end transparency. The IT capacities are provided flexibly from the cloud and scale with the business volume.

This created the technical basis for efficiently managing stocks, availability and orders - regardless of the sales channel.

The aim is to provide LLOYD customers with an optimised and consistent shopping experience, regardless of the channel they choose. This is a significant milestone in digital development and the fast pace of shopping behaviour.“

Result / Impact

This is how the problem was solved

With collana diva, a digital infrastructure was introduced that not only enables growth in e-commerce, but actively supports it. LLOYD can now control all processes via a central platform, work across all channels and react flexibly to market developments.

The cloud architecture based on Microsoft Azure ensures scalability and future viability. The launch of the new online store was not only a symbolic but also a technological milestone on the way to becoming a digital retail brand.
