PlentyMarkets hit functional and structural limits.

Hairshop Pro is an established online shop for professional hair and care products. The PlentyMarkets stack became a bottleneck: limited usability for marketing, heavy catalog upkeep, and few levers for conversion optimization.

Limited usability for internal marketing teams
Labor-intensive merchandising with little campaign flexibility
Few options for targeted conversion optimization
Limited scalability and weak mobile UX

Performance and usability first.

Conversion
Lift conversion through optimized journeys and UX
AOV
Raise average order value with cross- and upsell
Usability
Simplify Shopify admin for teams - less dev dependency
Decoupling
Separate PIM and storefront for independent iteration

PlentyMarkets as PIM. Shopify Plus as storefront.

PlentyMarkets stays the central PIM. The integration syncs product master data, inventory, prices, orders, fulfillment status, and custom fields with Shopify Plus as the performant, conversion-focused storefront.

Flexibility
PIM and storefront can evolve independently - no mutual blocking
Real-time sync
Product data, inventory, prices, orders, fulfillment status, and custom fields are synced
Future-proof
Shopify Plus can grow without touching the PIM

5 steps. 3 months. Go-live.

Decouple PIM & storefront

UX/UI rebuild
Modern responsive design in Figma - conversion and mobile usability from the ground up.

Much quicker updates to promo pages and campaigns: Faster
High satisfaction thanks to intuitive admin: Team
