Truckstop

Truckstop Group began as a modest family-run business operating from a rented office and a shed. Over time, it has grown into a prominent supplier of quality parts for commercial vehicles and trailers, boasting an inventory valued at over £4 million. With four branches, 35 vans, and a dedicated team of over 50 staff members, the company prides itself on rapid delivery and expert service .

Challenge

Initially, Truckstop Group relied on a limited ERP-based eCommerce solution that constrained their digital capabilities. Recognising the need for a more dynamic and user-friendly platform, they sought to transition to a solution that would enhance the usability and functionality of their online store, providing a superior customer experience.

Solution

We migrated Truckstop Group to Shopify, significantly improving their online presence. Key features implemented include

  • Real-Time Stock Lookup: Customers can access live stock information for over 6,000 product SKUs, enabling them to identify product availability across multiple branches and opt for collection or delivery options.

  • Advanced Search Functionality: Utilising Shopify’s Search & Discovery app, the site offers organised and filtered product listings, including detailed information such as equivalent OEMs, vehicle fits, and compatibility, enhancing the shopping experience.

  • Enhanced Product Page Merchandising: Product pages are designed to maximise conversions by featuring comprehensive details, related products, reviews, and stock availability, facilitating informed purchasing decisions.

  • Diverse Payment Options: The platform supports various payment methods, including Shop Pay, Google Pay, Klarna, and multiple credit card providers, offering flexibility to customers.

Post-launch, Velstar continues to provide ongoing store management, technical support, and strategic merchandising, ensuring sustained optimisation and sales performance.

AOV

"Our first attempt at an eCommerce website was an extremely frustrating experience. We were approached by Velstar and after a couple of meetings we were impressed by their knowledge and ideas and they completely redesigned our website. The end result is a website that looks great and gives the user a much better experience - this has resulted in a threefold increase in revenue and a website that we are all very proud of."
