Case Study: B2B Ecommerce - How Auschitzky Boosts Its Turnover Thanks to Its Online Sales Site

Auschitzky is a family business created in 1941 and has been distributing electrical equipment to professionals in Aquitaine for 80 years. With 1000 customers and 350,000 references, including 15,000 in stock, Auschitzky has an annual turnover of nearly 14 million euros. The company offers a wide range of products in the electrical sector.

Aware that B2B e-commerce is becoming the primary sales channel for professionals, Auschitzky decided to take advantage of the functionalities offered by the ecommerce platform set up by Galilée and SOCODA. The goal: to boost its visibility and its global sales performance by getting closer to its customers. SOCODA is partnering with Galilée to support all its members in their digital transformation.

Challenge

Ecommerce as an additional sales channel

The health crisis has fully changed the habits of buyers. The digital lever must therefore allow Auschitzky to differentiate itself in a sector dominated by two major players. Consequently, the company must make the purchasing process of its customers as fluid as possible. Its ecommerce site must constitute an additional sales channel by generating both traffic and additional revenue. The company's native information on its products was limited: labels, SKU codes, and a few lines of description. Auschitzky therefore had to make full use of the functionalities offered by the SOCODA group's B2B e-commerce platform, while ensuring a rapid and controlled implementation in terms of budget, logistics and quantities of items. This is a major challenge for any B2B distribution company that must adapt as quickly as possible to the new expectations of its customers and the market.
Case Study: Nicolas AUSCHITZKY, General Manager
"Our online sales website constitutes a considerable lever of commercial development by bringing us even closer to our customers. Galilee has also shown itself to be very flexible in adapting to our eco-system, notably by working in partnership with our service provider to redesign the graphic interface."
