Case Study: Acne Studios achieves a centralized wholesale hub and elevated retail experience with NuORDER

How Acne Studios’ fresh take on B2B tech enhances their retail operations

Acne Studios, the Stockholm-based fashion house, had relied on a proprietary B2B eCommerce solution built in-house but faced operational risk from depending on a single developer and needed a centralized “single source of truth” across wholesale and retail. To modernize its operations and add immersive commerce features, Acne Studios adopted NuORDER by Lightspeed’s centralized wholesale platform and integrated it into their tech stack.

NuORDER by Lightspeed served as the company-wide hub—powering wholesale ordering, retail store inventory lookups across roughly 80 stores, on‑site VIC ordering, uniform reorders, and a dynamic reference/archive of past and upcoming collections. The switch required only minor adjustments up front and led to clearer pre-showroom buyer behavior, faster on‑the‑spot ordering for clients, smoother store fulfilment, and an improved buying and brand‑presentation experience across Acne Studios’ teams.
