With commercetools for high-performance and scalable eCommerce solutions

Munich, 30 June 2023 – KPS AG, a leading partner for customer-centric business transformation, is expanding its partner network with a MACH® Alliance member: as a Premium Partner, KPS now stands shoulder to shoulder with commercetools. In the partnership, both companies benefit from their customer relationships and technical know-how. The commercetools portfolio includes high-performance, flexible, and scalable solutions for next-generation digital commerce.

Businesses need to be technologically agile enough to meet existing and potential customers wherever they are and provide them with a comprehensible, narrative experience across all touchpoints. More than 80 per cent of B2B buyers today prefer to order or pay via digital commerce.
Mike Sharp Chief Product Officer commercetools

Changing technology

Today, eCommerce platforms must offer more than a broad range of functions. They should be modularly expandable, be able to be integrated at all digital touchpoints and grow dynamically with the company's success. The composable architectures of KPS and commercetools provide eCommerce companies with decisive competitive advantages.

As a market-leading provider of headless commerce, commercetools has expanded its Composable Commerce product for B2C and D2C to include functionalities for the B2B sector. Through the partnership, KPS offers a demand-oriented design of customer experiences, individually aligned to the business model and independent of the company size.

KPS and commercetools focus on first-class digital shopping experiences

Companies today are often faced with numerous challenges. It often happens that not only customer needs and business cases change significantly, but that entire fields of action shift into the digital world, such as entire sales stages or service landscapes. Customers increasingly expect demand-oriented handling in eCommerce, such as a smooth ordering and checkout process, a simplified search, or browsing through product catalogues. Through the seamless connection and integration of all frontends and third-party applications via APIs, customers now experience a new dimension of flexibility. 

Through our strategic partnership with commercetools, we aim to improve the consumer experience in digital commerce. Our best-of-breed solutions are designed to withstand future developments in eCommerce: rapidly changing customer behaviour, changing market factors and the emergence of new trends and channels.
