Warehouse Express

CASE STUDY

We used our ecommerce website localisation expertise to help Warehouse Express launch in Germany.

Warehouse Express was established in 1997 offering a dedicated service focused at Professional and Enthusiast Photographers; a service that today is enjoyed by over 100,000 customers.

With consistent year-on-year growth and after being repeatedly named best online retailer, Warehouse Express decided they were ready to expand into Germany.

Web-Translations are experts in multilingual eCommerce sites, so got to work putting together a comprehensive package of languages services, web skills and consultancy to meet Warehouse Express’s needs.
