E-commerce: ready, set, go!

Since 1980, Zelfbouwmarkt has been a go-to specialist store for building, remodeling, and interior & decoration products. Known for quality and expert advice, it houses seven specialty shops in Ninove. Zelfbouwmarkt initiated their e-commerce plans after a shout out from Wouter Torfs to keep e-commerce business of Belgian stores in Belgian hands. Stijn Desmet (Commercial Director at Zelfbouwmarkt): "We know the online and offline market is changing and evolving continuously, and we felt the need to contribute to that change. These days, offering the best service is only possible when products and interior advice is also offered online.” Besides their goal to keep offering the best service in every possible way, they realized they had to approach a broader audience. Stijn: "With our physical store in Belgium we mainly focus on real interior lovers in Belgium, but with an online store we can expand this and target the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and France.
"Thanks to the highly skilled graphic and technical team at Studio Emma and the use of Pimcore, we are proud of our beautiful webshop. The result is a unique, robust and performant webshop with an attractive design"
