A worldwide online shop for Sakura Fountain Pen Gallery

01About the project

Sakura Fountain Pen Gallery is a boutique for premium fountain pens and writing instruments, with customers and collectors all over the world.

The company was growing and the online shop had to keep up: a shopping experience that suits a luxury brand and works for customers in every country.

02The question

The existing website was outdated. It lacked what is needed to sell internationally, such as the right VAT and shipping for each country, and it did not reflect the luxury of the brand.

03What we built

Sitects designed and built a new custom online shop, in several languages. Prices automatically show the right VAT for the customer's country, and shipping follows international rules. Every order goes straight into the CRM, so the team follows up everything in one place.

04The result

The new Sakura Fountain Pen Gallery web shop is live and sells fountain pens to enthusiasts all over the world. It works in several languages, automatically shows the right VAT for the customer’s country, and every order goes straight into the CRM. That means less time on admin and more time for customers and the collection.
“We’re extremely happy with our international webshop. It’s user-friendly, aligned with our design, and the dynamic pricing based on VAT per country is perfect. The integrated CRM and optimized shipping make it ideal for our global needs. Highly professional work!”
