Tuinmaak.nl started with a small webshop on Magento but faced challenges due to its complexity and limited usability. Manual product updates and shipping label creation took valuable time and hindered growth potential. As founders Jaap and Johan described: "With Magento, we were losing valuable time to manual tasks and quickly felt stuck. We needed a partner to help us grow efficiently." Looking for a scalable and efficient solution, they sought a partner to automate processes and streamline e-commerce operations so they could focus on expanding into new markets.

Afosto helped Tuinmaak transition from time-consuming manual processes to a fully integrated and scalable e-commerce solution. Through automation and smart integrations for inventory management, order processing, and shipping, Tuinmaak streamlined their operations and achieved significant growth. Key components included a centralized PIM system for product data management, automated inventory synchronization in real time between webshops and external marketplaces, and automatic printing of shipping labels through integrations with shipping providers. Afosto also enabled seamless integration with Bol.com and the German market, a headless checkout for fast transactions, automated data feeds, and SEO-optimized webshops — allowing Tuinmaak to scale without a corresponding increase in operational costs.
