The self-served migration of Koosvanderbeek.nl

More than 86 years of hairdressing wholesale

It was May 1939, when 18-year-old Koos van der Beek started and converted the garage in his parents’ backyard into a warehouse. A warehouse that would later grow into one of the oldest and most welcoming hairdressing wholesalers in the Netherlands.

The approach: self-served with Syncer

Koosvanderbeek.nl wanted to move away from the limitations within Lightspeed and was looking for a more flexible and scalable solution. Shopify offers the freedom to work with a broad ecosystem of apps and integrations, without being tied to one platform.

As the very first customer, Koosvanderbeek.nl chose a self-served migration using the Syncer onboarding dashboard. The data migration of no fewer than 134,321 items was carried out by Syncer, after which Koosvanderbeek.nl took full control of setting up and optimizing the new Shopify store themselves.

A future-proof foundation

Thanks to this combination – a secure and complete data migration by Syncer and the independent setup via our onboarding dashboard – Koosvanderbeek.nl was able to go live in no time with a future-proof webshop. This proves that entrepreneurs, with the right tools and guidance, can take control of their own migration process.

  • 100% of all data and SEO data synchronized
  • Store setup and frontend by the client themselves
  • Fully self-served
  • Budget-friendly migration
  • Maximum performance, minimal downtime (0%)

  • Live data syncer

    Koosvanderbeek.nl absolutely didn't want any data loss or an SEO drop, who did? Unfortunately, this happens all too often with many migration tools.

    With the Syncer App for Shopify ®, the current live store in Lightspeed was synchronized with the new store in Shopify . Every event, from a new customer to an order to a return, is automatically sent to the new platform, so there is no data loss and there is time and space to build the new store.
