The Accelerator Award recognizes those who have significantly reduced the time-to-market of their products, decreased the number of steps, and cut back on manual work to accelerate growth.
''With Akeneo, we went from a fully manual process spread over five actors and subcontractors to a nearly fully automated process empowered by AI. We still have manual checkpoints and tasks, but the more reliable our process becomes, the more we will be able to achieve a fully automated creation process. We are confident that we will be able to double our volume of news products created with the same amount of FTEs.''
Drawer, an online furniture seller operating in the French market, faced several challenges, including manual data translation, cumbersome product product creation processes, and a lack of data quality evaluation. These challenges, deeply rooted in their legacy systems and processes, demanded immediate and strategic solutions to align with their ambitious growth plans. In alignment with their commitment to adopt a more flexible, agile, and scalable infrastructure, Drawer recognized the necessity for a MACH-Certified solution.
Drawer is an online furniture seller operating in the French market, sourcing products from various providers and selling through their website and 10 different marketplaces. The Drawer econcept store was born in 2011 in the Euratechnologies incubator and has since grown to host a catalog of over 4,500 SKUs.
Offering a robust and user-friendly foundation for data management and participating in the MACH Alliance, Akeneo stood out as the composable solution for Drawer.
The implementation of Akeneo PIM and Supplier Data Manager catalyzed their transition to an automated system, drastically cutting down product creation time and boosting efficiency. In their journey with Akeneo, Drawer transitioned from a manual, multi-actor process to a nearly automated system, empowering their team.
Since implementing Akeneo PIM, Drawer has achieved remarkable results. In their first month alone, they created 200 new references, surpassing their typical monthly product creation rate. This growth was facilitated by the addition of new suppliers and product families. Drawer now creates products in less than a day for their supply department, accelerating production launch timelines.
