Setting standards of innovation
Limmert successfully relaunches its website with enhanced store functions.
Following a tradition of excellence, Limmert decided to relaunch its website and all associated touchpoints. After comparing several leading e-commerce providers, the long-established, family-owned company opted for the Intershop Commerce Platform. The key attractions were the exceptional adaptability of the Intershop solution and its omni-channel capability.
With an inventory of around 25,000 items across 14,000 square meters, electrical goods wholesaler Gebrüder Limmert AG is a market leader in Austria. The successful family business is also renowned for its exceptional customer service—and has been since it was established in 1924.
