Challenge

Online shopping experience vs. retailer variety

Welcome to new digital spheres! For the relaunch of their marketplace, Gabor brought Salzburg-based digital agency elements and the software platform Pimcore on board as their new partners. The result: In only eight months, an entirely new eCommerce platform was developed – leading to increased customer satisfaction!

Dealing with the Gabor project, the elements team was faced with several challenges. How do you incorporate 70 retailers and two payment providers into one platform? All while improving the online shopping experience for customers? And how can you ensure a smooth transition from the previous system?

The answer: with a bespoke digital platform tailored to the essential processes of Gabor’s online presence.

It cleverly combines content and commerce. Single-source and multi-channel publication options facilitate the integration of data from different sources and the creation of personalized content.

The result: The possibility to create holistic digital experiences for Gabor customers on all channels and in a user-friendly environment.

Record-breaking: It only took eight months to go from the project’s start to the relaunch of the Gabor commerce platform.
