Where Toolsvoordelig started
ToolsVoordelig is the online tool specialist for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike. With a wide range of top brands like Makita, Bosch and Festool, sharp prices and lightning-fast delivery: often the next day: you’re ready for any job.
Toolsvoordelig is an online tools shop with cordless, electric, hand and garden tools, accessories and workshop supplies. The store came from Lightspeed and needed to move a catalog of more than 5 million items to Shopify Plus in a short window.
- 01More than 5 million catalog items from Lightspeed
- 02A broad professional tools assortment across machines, accessories and workshop supplies
- 03A store serving both professionals and DIY customers
- 04A 15 day migration ending with the 13 November 2024 go live
Toolsvoordelig.nl quickly grew into a popular store for tools and accessories. With that growth, customer expectations also rose: finding what they’re looking for faster, ordering more easily and better insight into stock and delivery times. The old platform offered too little flexibility for this, and the limits became visible.
Shopify offered the stability and extensibility Toolsvoordelig.nl needed. The platform makes it easy to add new features, integrate with external systems and optimise the ordering process: think a smoother checkout, better search and filter options and more ways to serve customers personally.
The migration was more than just a technical step. The goal was to lay a foundation on which the store can keep growing. With Shopify, Toolsvoordelig.nl can respond to market trends more easily and extend their range without being held back by technology.
