The challenge

Outdated Processes Slowing Down Digital Growth

JENSEN-GROUP specializes in providing industrial laundry solutions worldwide, serving clients in large-scale laundry operations serving the hospitality and healthcare business as well as industrial companies. However, their existing e-commerce system was creating more challenges than solutions. The platform lacked essential B2B capabilities, requiring extensive custom development just to support basic functionalities.

Key Challenges:

  • Slow & Unreliable Platform: Poor performance and frequent downtime frustrated customers, leading to a preference for email and phone orders over online purchasing.
  • Cumbersome Customer Experience: Customers couldn’t easily modify orders, generate quotes.
  • Scalability Issues: Each of their 15 webstores operated as a standalone entity, leading to inefficiencies in management and maintenance..

With Dynamicweb, we had to develop essential features just to meet basic expectations, like checkout fields and quoting. With Sana Commerce Cloud, these functionalities come standard, saving us significant time and effort.

Complexities

Managing Multi-Market Operations with Diverse Customer Needs

Operating globally with 15 regional hubs, the JENSEN-GROUP required a solution that could handle complex B2B sales structures while delivering a seamless customer experience. Their business model required balancing multiple factors, including product assortment, pricing structures, and regional logistics, all of which added significant operational complexity.

Key Complexities:

Extensive Product Catalog

Over 120,000 spare parts, but only around 6,000 are frequently ordered. Managing this inventory across multiple warehouses required real-time synchronization to prevent stockouts and inefficiencies.

Multi-Warehouse & Drop-Shipping Model

Some regional offices operated with local stock, while others depended on drop-shipping from central production facilities, making visibility into inventory levels critical.

Localized Pricing & Language Support

Each market had distinct pricing models, requiring ERP-synced, customer-specific pricing while supporting multiple languages. 

 

Diverse Customer Base

Serving independent laundries, hotel chains, and government institutions meant accommodating different purchasing workflows, from self-service transactions to formal quote-based procurement.

Cross-Border Logistics

Customers expected fast and reliable delivery, even when products were sourced from different locations. Ensuring accurate estimated delivery times required seamless coordination between multiple warehouses.

Customers expect the same smooth experience they get from B2C shopping platforms. We needed to offer intuitive navigation, real-time stock visibility, and flexible order management.
