Case Study: Pelta achieves scalable international eCommerce growth with Sylius

Filling the niche with a new Sylius-based store for self-defense

Pelta, a French self-defense products company, needed an eCommerce platform that could support rapid international expansion, comply with varying legislation across countries, and handle very high traffic. To meet these goals, Pelta chose Sylius, working with CWS Studio to build a scalable, headless, API-driven store for selling pepper sprays, tasers, alarms, flashlights, and related accessories across Europe and beyond.

Sylius helped power a flexible commerce architecture decoupled from the front end and connected to tools such as ElasticSearch, NodeJS, Docker, WMS logistics systems, and Mailjet. The result was a platform ready for multi-country growth and multi-warehouse operations that could withstand peak loads of 7,500 page views per minute without performance issues. Sylius enabled Pelta to expand into additional European markets smoothly while laying the groundwork for future growth in the US and Asia.
