In this way, Develey expresses its brand identity with brand-compliant design elements and interactive features in a unique shop setup .

  • The initial situation

    Develey, the traditional German manufacturer with 180 years of experience in producing its popular sauces, was looking for a modern e-commerce solution. The existing shop on PimCore could no longer meet the growing demands for flexibility and ease of use. The desire grew for a platform that seamlessly incorporated Develey's signature design and offered customers the familiar brand experience, even virtually.

  • The challenge

    The new store was designed to incorporate Develey's distinctive design elements, vividly highlight the products, and create an intuitive shopping experience for customers. It was also important to lay a stable and high-performance foundation for future expansion and the store's continued growth.

  • The solution approach

    Develey chose to work with tante-e to implement the switch to Shopify in a professional and structured manner. The initial phase involved a detailed conceptual design phase to precisely analyze the brand's requirements and develop a customized online store strategy. A highly customized theme approach was chosen to precisely address Develey's visual and functional requirements.

The implementation

Brand-compliant design

The tante-e team systematically implemented Develey's signature design elements in the shop, particularly the brand's signature wave elements in the header and between the sections, which can be intuitively placed using the theme editor. Furthermore, the colorful imagery characterizes the shop's authentic appearance.

Interactive & informative elements in balance

The "speaking e" from the Develey logo answers the most important product questions in a clear dropdown section on various shop pages – thus combining brand identity with informative content. Interactive elements such as sliders continue to ensure an intuitive shopping experience and additional inspiration across all shops.

Optimized product pages

The shop's product pages were implemented according to proven e-commerce best practices and are optimized for above-the-fold. A visual size selection with preview images and structured content grids ensure clarity and strong brand communication.

Connection to ERP software

The tante-e team supported the integration of the JTL Connector into the new shop to ensure smooth merchandise management and efficient inventory management.
