The team had a small budget and consisted of a few dozen people, including a one-man ecommerce team.</p><p>Craig Bates, Hoffmann Group USA’s ecommerce manager, was tasked with developing and executing a comprehensive ecommerce strategy. He used BigCommerce to build their website on his own in just three months.&nbsp;</p><p>“Bolt is the absolute best choice for a checkout solution,” said Craig Bates, Ecommerce Manager at the Hoffman Group USA. “Not only for small businesses but for businesses of all sizes who want to see rapid growth and accelerated customer experiences that are only available to them if they use Bolt.”&nbsp;</p><p>When Hoffmann Group USA joined the Bolt network in October of 2021 as a BigCommerce merchant, Bates was immediately impressed by how easy Bolt was to integrate into their current website.&nbsp;</p><p>“The tech team walked me through how to do it and it was so easy. The service was amazing,” said Bates. “Comparing Bolt's functionality, features and customer support&nbsp; to what we were using before, it was night and day.”&nbsp;</p><p>Hoffmann Group USA continues to scale in the U.S., aiming to grow available HoffmannGroupUSA.com product SKUs from 4,500 to over 7,000 SKUs.
