Stockholm, Sweden, September 7, 2017 – Vaimo, a Magento Global Elite solution partner and strategic omni-channel partner for top-tier brands, has opened an office in Belgium. The office, which will target both B2B and B2C merchants in the BeNeLux countries, follows the company’s strategy to expand across Europe.

“Vaimo has successfully established a presence in 10 countries globally since the company was founded in 2008. The eCommerce market in the BeNeLux countries is growing fast and there is a great demand for our expertise in eCommerce and omnichannel strategies and solutions. With our new office, we will be closer to all B2B and B2C merchants in the region and we can better serve those who are looking for a strategic solution partner to grow cross-borders. We believe that we can contribute positively to continued eCommerce growth in the BeNeLux region,” says Breght Evens, Country Manager at Vaimo BeNeLux.

Vaimo will start delivering omni-channel solutions to merchants and brands in all three BeNeLux countries from its office in Genk. Having successfully implemented a complex B2B solution for Lecot-Raedschelders, a leading supplier for the construction industry in Belgium and headquartered in Heule, Vaimo will continue to focus on the wholesale construction industry in addition to other industries in BeNeLux in order to help merchants grow online.

“The retail sector is the beating heart of the economy in these three countries. In addition, the BeNeLux region is one of Europe’s largest eCommerce markets, fast-growing and with a high spending power which makes it very interesting for us. Establishing a presence in the BeNeLux market is also an important piece of Vaimo’s strategy to becoming the world’s leading solution provider on commerce solutions based on Magento Commerce platform,” says David Holender, Chief Executive Officer at Vaimo.

The eCommerce market in the region is growing fast. In 2016, the eCommerce turnover in Belgium increased by 10% when compared to the previous year with a total of €9.1 billion spent online. The B2C e-commerce is expected to increase to €602 billion in 2017, compared to €530 billion in 2016. In Netherlands, the B2C e-commerce turnover grew by 23% in 2016 compared to the preceding year. Luxembourg, who is among the top 10 countries in terms of internet penetration with 98% of people having access to internet, has seen an average growth of 15% year on year since 2013 in online revenue (source: Ecommerce Reports by Ecommerce Foundation).
