BestValue is the biggest duty-free store chain in Romania. Their main area of business is selling duty-free goods for travelers online. The store is available only for validated travelers. Offering the comfort of ordering online instead of buying and carrying products from brick and mortar airport stores makes their business innovative. With hundreds of thousands of happy customers & products, they are leaders of their market.
Challenges
BestValue got to a point where the default Sylius PIM was not enough. They needed a new way to automate product information processing and eliminate content bugs.
Goals
Design a standarized input format
Develop an import/export module with the Sylius PIM UI integration
Handle invalid data
Optimize the performance of huge amount of records
Solution
We provided a Sylius Import/Export processor for a designed format using the Symfony Validator component in order to check the data consistency. The module has been tested using BDD techniques in various edge cases. The project has been completed within few weeks.
Testimonial
What we liked most about BitBag was how they leverage the advantages of the Sylius framework and the existing plugins available in the community. Instead of reinventing the wheel every time, for every customer, they re-use existing components to achieve business goals, which really pays off in the long run.
