Retailers now pull the images themselves.
Martini Sportswear came to OUTTRA via ISPO. First Where-To-Buy, then the Data & Image Hub: retailers pull product images by item number instead of requesting them by email. That saves time, the scarcest resource for retailers and brand alike.
Industry
Outdoor apparel, a family business for almost 70 years
Location
Annaberg im Lammertal, Austria
With OUTTRA
Where-To-Buy and Dealer Locator for three years, Data & Image Hub for one year
The challenge
Very manual, as almost everywhere.
Retailers asked for images and a colleague sent out links by hand. With Where-To-Buy, shoppers were to see on the website which retail partner has the product locally. A year later, the Data & Image Hub added central access to product data and images.

The solution
Three solutions from the OUTTRA ecosystem.
- Where-To-Buy Shows on the brand website where the product is available right now, in store and online.
- Dealer Locator The retailer search on the brand website, with contact details and opening hours from the OUTTRA ecosystem.
- Data & Image Hub Brands provide product data and images in one place. Retailers download them in the format their system needs.

The result
Benefits for brand, retailers and shoppers.
For the brand
Less manual work in sales
Image requests no longer land on anyone’s desk. Setup and retailer communication were smooth and intuitive.
For retailers
Images by item number
Retailers pull product images and data themselves using the item number. That goes down very well because it saves time.
For shoppers
Try it on and get advice
On the website, shoppers see which retail partner has the product locally, where they can try it and get advice.
From the conversation

“It goes down very well because it really saves time, and I think that is the resource that is simply scarce out there, for us as well as for retailers.”
