The company realized they needed to strengthen their omnichannel experience, which required technology that would serve their customers across all digital channels. Furthermore, it was clear that their existing SAP Hybris setup was not scalable in terms of cost efficiency and was hindering their ability to recruit talent.
Salling Group replaced their monolithic platform, implementing a new tech stack with the commercetools headless commerce architecture at its core. Focused on delivering modern UX designs with a mobile-first mindset, they incorporated Magnolia’s headless CMS, microservices, APIs, and Jamstack.
We have lowered our operations costs, reduced our time-to-market, made it easier to recruit talented employees and vastly improved our mobile experience. We received an award for the best German connected retail solution and...we’re just getting started.
