Challenge: A complex product catalog and the need for integration

Before the start of the project, LEMIT had extensive product catalogs with hundreds of items and accompanying photos. One of the first challenges was organizing and migrating the entire catalog to the new web platform. It was necessary to consolidate all product information (names, descriptions, specifications) and ensure high-quality images for each item. This process required careful planning of product categories and attributes to make the online store clear, intuitive, and easy to navigate.

An even greater challenge was synchronizing data between the website and the company’s existing ERP system. LEMIT wanted stock levels and product prices on the website to always be up to date and fully aligned with the internal warehouse status and business system. Without proper integration, there was a risk of showing outdated information to customers (e.g., a product being sold out or its price having changed), which would harm the user experience and lead to operational inconsistencies. Therefore, it was crucial to find a solution for automatic, bidirectional data exchange between the WordPress platform and the ERP, eliminating the need for manual updates and minimizing the risk of errors.

Solution: WordPress e-commerce with real-time ERP integration

To meet the client’s requirements, we developed a completely new WordPress website with an integrated WooCommerce platform for online sales. Our solution was tailored to the specific needs of LEMIT’s business, combining an intuitive site design with a powerful backend that connects multiple systems.

Catalog Migration and Optimization:
The entire LEMIT product assortment was successfully migrated to the new platform. The product category structure was carefully planned to enable customers to quickly find what they are looking for. Each product includes a detailed description, technical specifications, and high-quality images. Special attention was given to optimizing images and content for faster page loading and improved SEO visibility.

Real-Time ERP Integration:
We implemented a custom module that connects WordPress with LEMIT’s ERP system. Through a secure API connection, stock levels and product prices are automatically synchronized every minute. This real-time synchronization ensures that the online store always displays accurate information. When a product is sold or its price changes in the ERP, the update is reflected on the website within one minute. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and significantly reduces the risk of human error.

Custom Plugin for Related Products:
To enhance the sale of complementary items, we developed a custom WordPress plugin for multidirectional related products. This means that when two products are linked as related items (e.g., adhesive and tiles, or a tool and its consumables), the connection automatically works both ways. A customer viewing product A will see product B in the “Related Products” section, and vice versa—product A will be displayed on the product B page. This functionality improves the shopping experience by helping customers easily discover additional items that go together, while giving LEMIT the opportunity to increase the average order value.

Results: Up-to-date information and an enhanced e-commerce experience

After launching the new website, LEMIT gained a modern online store fully integrated with its business operations. The key benefits and results of this project include:

Always up-to-date information:
Thanks to real-time ERP integration, stock levels and prices on the website are always accurate. Automatic synchronization every 60 seconds eliminates the risk of showing invalid or outdated information to customers, increasing the credibility of the online store and boosting customer trust during the purchase process.

Improved user experience:
Website visitors can make purchasing decisions with confidence, knowing the displayed information is correct. Additionally, the related products feature offers recommendations for complementary items (e.g., accessories, add-ons, or alternative products), making the shopping experience more convenient while encouraging cross-sell and up-sell opportunities.

More efficient operations:
With system integration, LEMIT employees now have simplified sales management. There is no longer a need to maintain separate records— the online store and ERP now work as a single system. This saves time on administrative tasks, reduces the possibility of data errors, and allows staff to focus on more important activities such as customer service and procurement planning.

Prepared for future growth:
The new WordPress website is scalable and can be easily expanded with additional features. LEMIT now has a robust digital platform through which it can broaden its offering and reach a wider customer base, making this a significant step forward in their digital transformation.
