Case Study: Venkel modernizes eCommerce with CodeClouds and Swell

Venkel migrates 500,000+ parts to Swell with CodeClouds

Venkel, a leading supplier of electronic components, faced the challenge of migrating their complex ecommerce operation from Magento to a more robust platform. They required a solution that could handle intricate B2B and B2C needs, including customer group pricing, high decimal precision for cheap components, ERP integrations, and accurate lead time calculations for large orders. To address this, they partnered with vendor CodeClouds for a migration to the headless commerce platform Swell.is.

CodeClouds successfully executed the migration to Swell, transferring a catalog of over half a million parts while maintaining the existing design and functionality. The vendor implemented custom solutions for multi-decimal pricing and dynamic lead time calculations, and created a system for displaying contract-specific pricing for larger customers. The result was a modernized webstore that met all of Venkel's complex business requirements. Following the successful migration, CodeClouds continued to develop additional features for Venkel, including a Bill of Materials tool and quote functionality.
