Case Study: iBuy Stores achieves 10x faster time-to-market with Akeneo PIM

Akeneo PIM Helps iBuyStores Reach New Heights

iBuy Stores, a growing eCommerce business operating 50+ sites and managing about 1.5 million SKUs, struggled with slow, time‑consuming product enrichment, lengthy new‑hire training, and the need for a cost‑effective single source of truth. To solve these problems the company turned to Akeneo and its Akeneo PIM Community Edition.

Akeneo implemented its Community Edition PIM, which iBuy Stores had up and running within 24 hours to manage 300+ product categories; the result was a 10x faster product enrichment/time‑to‑market, employee training reduced to hours, rapid expansion from ~20 to 50 sites, and a scalable, no‑subscription platform that enabled plans to grow the catalog from 1.5M to 2.6M SKUs. Akeneo’s solution delivered measurable speed, scalability, and cost savings that directly supported iBuy Stores’ growth.
