Review

BIOTOP PROFESSIONAL had long considered selling directly to consumers. The business was built on selling hair products to salons and wholesale distributors—and when the COVID-19 pandemic broke out, it was the catalyst that led them to realize their D2C ambitions.

Results

A fully customized American store—in less than a month.

The website included new systems for order logistics and customer service, and together with the existing systems, the business seamlessly receives and fulfills online orders. A few weeks after launch, the company decided to offer order fulfillment worldwide.

About BIOTOP

With more than 20,000 retailers worldwide, BIOTOP PROFESSIONAL is a natural hair care company that distributes its products primarily through salons.

The company focuses on high-quality products made with hair-beneficial ingredients — and we played a significant role in developing the ideal solution for its needs.

Challenges

Hair salons around the world closed their doors, and BIOTOP needed a new way to reach customers directly.

The main challenge was to launch a store in less than a month while also preparing for long-term success and international growth.

Solutions

Based on the Impulse theme, we customized almost every page.

  • Collection pages from scratch: Each collection has its own colors, branding, and layout.
  • ERP and supplier integration: Unified business operations.
  • Ready to replicate: A build that makes it easy to launch websites for additional international markets.
  • Operational support: Since BIOTOP was new to e-commerce, we helped build new workflows and operational processes.
