LEDERER: Webshop efficiency enhancements

There have been major developments (and minor ones too) over the last 12 months for Lederer’s webshop.

The all-important item search has been revamped so users have the option to limit the search for item numbers and generate exact matches. By using quotation marks, webshop users will now get exact match results only.

Power users can now choose whether to manually add to their shopping cart item-by-item, or by uploading their own order files as a big time saver (one happy customer was quoted as saying “two clicks, order done…this will save us a lot of time”). Csv, xls and xlsx files can be processed by the site then placing order lists straight in the shopping basket, while still leaving users able to make further changes if required.

Unavailable items now come with details of when they’re back in stock (planned and confirmed) and email notifications can be set to update users as soon as they’re available again.

The busy webshop development team have also expanded language product data on the site. While the webshop itself is available in English and German, article and product data is now available in more than eight languages, including:

Dutch Spanish French Italian Polish Hungarian Czech, & Slovakian

All those changes are in addition to the regular features of the Lederer webshop, including; favourites and repeat orders lists, download of price lists, access to detailed product information and article catalogues, responsive design, as well as the issuing, saving and search of own article numbers.

STAFA’s brand new ERP system

On 30 November 2020, Stafa launched its new ERP system, Warehouse Management system and a completely new and improved webshop.

The webshop is an important tool for Stafa’s customers. Not only can they order products, but customers can also check the available stock, customer specific prices and more. By using a modern structured menu, searching products has never been easier. With interactive filtering, users are able to find desired products in no-time. The development of the webshop is ongoing, because each day Stafa learns from its processes and its customers. Every addition that can help improve the user interface, processing speed, available information etc, will be analysed and implemented where necessary. This way Stafa can always stay up-to-date with all the new developments that are being introduced in the online landscape. Not only in the consumer market have online orders have increased drastically, but also in the B2B market, Stafa says.

A webshop is an extension of the service that is provided to customers. It is of great added value not only for Stafa’s customers, but also for Stafa itself. Because of increasing automated processes they are able to improve their level of service when it comes to order processing, additional information and streamlined logistics.
