Herscheid, 09.04.2018: The company Gust. Alberts GmbH & Co. KG, GAH-Alberts for short, is a traditional and leading manufacturer of products and ideas for the home and garden - now in its fifth generation. The company is headquartered in the Sauerland region and has four sales companies in Europe and Russia. The product range includes, among others, hardware & fittings, profiles & sheets and fencing technology. The more than 8,000 international trade partners include in particular DIY stores, specialist retailers and online retailers.
For the relaunch of the website and the online catalog at Gustav Alberts, the CMS TYPO3 was used. The implementation was carried out by the agency David&Goliath. The country-specific online catalog is available in the languages German, English, French, Italian, Spanish, Polish and Russian. In addition to the data for the online catalog, an electronic catalog for nexMart is provided in parallel with crossbase.
With the provision of "deep links" from the online partners, a "buy online function" can thus be made available for each item with the help of the nexMart "retail Connect" module. By clicking on the appropriate button, stores selling the desired product online are automatically identified and a further click links directly to the item of the selected store. Alternatively, you can search for a stationary dealer in the vicinity.
By means of the crossbase API server, the online catalog created in Typo3 is supplied with product information directly from the crossbase database. To keep the data volume as low as possible, only the data that has changed since the last access is transferred. This concerns the transfer of the following product information for the respective catalog range:
