It is planned that Divante will join Cloudflight by January 2022 at the latest.

This includes the developing of intuitive front-ends for webshops and eCommerce websites as well as AI capabilities that enable faster eCommerce processes and a higher degree of automation leading to increased customer satisfaction and conversion.

Some of the existing Divante customers are Axinter, SAP and Bosch. In the past, a variety of retailers such as Lampenwelt, Staples, Marc O’Polo or WEG Würth have also taken advantage of Divante’s expertise in creating state-of-the-art headless eCommerce solutions as well as big retail enterprises which aim to win D2C battles in coming years.

“Joining forces with Divante enables us to expand into the ever-growing area of eCommerce. The unprecedented boom in this sector led to the need to implement new technologies faster in order to fulfill growing customer demands”, comments Jörn Petereit, COO at Cloudflight. “Together with Divante, we’re happy to close another gap in the digital transformation of our customers and strengthen our eCommerce expertise.”

With Divante, we have found another partner that represents such a perfect match. They are driven by the same values, share the same vision and have a similar approach regarding software development”, Christoph Oberhaus, CFO at Cloudflight adds. “The demand for state-of-the-art eCommerce solutions is soaring and companies are looking for tailor-made solutions that combine industry know-how, consulting, coding excellence, and next-generation technological capabilities to future-prove their business, accelerate their digital transformation, and provide their employees with solutions that increase both, productivity and to enable tasks with a higher value-ad.”

“We’re excited to partner with Cloudflight and make the best use of their expertise combined with ours. The pandemic has led to an immense evolution of digital transformation, which can be best seen in eCommerce.
