Jollein has been a successful company in baby room textiles and accessories since 1973. Jollein designs new collections annually, that feature hip and trendy designs as well as items under their neutral and basic collection. As a privately held company, they are located in Assen, Drenthe with approximately 50 employees. In line with corporate social responsibility and sustainability which are quite prevalent today, Jollein has made attempts to cultivate more environmentally ethical changes to their company, which further heightens the need for organizational structure across all sectors.
As Jollein is a popular baby clothing accessories wholesaler within the Netherlands – the growing demand for their products has increased exponentially. The brand aspires to contribute to a healthier world through waste reduction in a bid to lower CO2 emissions and protect the environment. As such, they understand the digital shift in consumer markets during the coronavirus pandemic and wish to become scalable and digitally inclined to reach newer and larger demographics in transparent and authentic ways.
To accelerate its digital transformation, Jollein used the Alumio integration platform to integrate its ERP (Exact Globe) with its e-commerce platform (Shopware 5). The integration also helped them gain better insight and control over their stock and delivery services, helping them adhere to their newfound ethical and digital consumer market ideology. Alumio also provides a robust monitoring and logging system and enables Jollein to receive stock updates every fifteen minutes. This greatly contributes to the standardization of their business, allowing Jollein to continue to make clothing and accessories without plastic and additionally capitalize on new opportunities.
