Case Study: Hammacher Schlemmer future‑proofs its 169‑year shopping legacy and unifies sales & inventory data with Caspio

How Hammacher Schlemmer Future-Proofed Its Shopping Legacy With Low-Code

Hammacher Schlemmer, a 169‑year‑old retailer famous for distinctive and novelty products, faced the challenge of modernizing its operations and connecting fragmented data across the organization to better track sales and inventory. With limited IT resources and a need for rapid, user-driven solutions, the company sought a platform that would let non‑technical staff build and manage business apps.

Using Caspio’s low‑code, visual application builder, VP of Marketing Henry Coleman created custom web apps to capture data, share insights and automate processes without coding. The solution enabled real‑time sales and inventory tracking, closed data silos, proved cost‑effective and straightforward to use, and helped future‑proof Hammacher Schlemmer’s century‑plus retail legacy.
