By switching from the outdated OXID shop system to Shopify Plus, LERROS was able to increase their e-commerce sales , become less dependent on external agencies, and take their online shop to a new level.

The initial situation
LERROS, a renowned fashion brand for men of advanced age, is headquartered in Neuss, Germany. Since its founding in 1979, LERROS has expanded its presence to over 30 countries and built a diverse product offering ranging from trousers, T-shirts, and shirts to sweaters and jackets. Operating in various retail stores, as well as its own online store and fashion marketplaces, LERROS is a perfect example of a medium-sized company embracing modernization. Furthermore, the company is a sponsor and supporter of the Bayer Leverkusen football club.

The challenge
Until now, LERROS's online store was operated on the outdated OXID platform, which proved to be maintenance-intensive, error-prone, and inflexible. Any customization had to be handled by an external agency, which not only resulted in lost time but also high costs. LERROS wanted to take more control of its e-commerce business and needed an online store setup that was flexible enough to meet its own needs while remaining easy to use. Furthermore, the entire ERP system was to be overhauled and the company's entire IT infrastructure was to be placed on a new, robust, and modern foundation.

The solution approach
In collaboration with tante-e, LERROS migrated its online store from OXID to Shopify Plus. At the same time, Xentral was introduced as a new ERP system to serve as the company's central hub. The goal was to enable storytelling and visually powerful product presentations in Shopify while ensuring automated and standardized data input into Xentral.
