CHALLENGES

CENTRALIZING PRODUCT INFORMATION FOR FIREARMS

Managing more than 40,000 firearm, ammunition, and outdoor products requires accurate, structured, and up-to-date product information. Zanders needed to replace its legacy Magento 1 platform, establish a centralized PIM, and seamlessly connect product data with ERP and eCommerce systems to better support dealers across the U.S.
 
  • Legacy Magento 1 platform limiting scalability
  • Product information distributed across multiple systems
  • No centralized PIM for 40,000+ firearm and outdoor products
  • Missing integration between Pimcore, ERP, and eCommerce
  • Need for faster product search and dealer access
  • Scalable infrastructure to support future growth
