Helping business trade during lockdown with E-Commerce websites

Businesses in the UK have been feeling the pinch – be it the closure of shops and offices, restrictions on trade due to Brexit difficulties, or a downturn in the economy. ITC Digital has helped three businesses over the past couple of months to expand their business by launching new E-Commerce websites.  The new websites have enabled them to trade online where their traditional audiences may not have been able to gain easy access to their products.

Ovington Boats is a leading manufacturer of sporting boats and accessories.  Their boats are featured in classes at events such as the Olympic Games and world-wide racing.  They operate from a base in North Shields and manufacture each boat in-house.  With a global customer base, the client needed a simple way for their market to purchase boats, accessories, and a range of merchandise.

Woodsmith Experience in Whitley Bay sells a wide range of woodworking tools, runs courses, and offers help and advice with customers wanting to learn more about their business.  The perfect lockdown hobby, we quickly launched a new site after their old site was taken offline due to technical difficulties from a platform they inherited.  The new site offers customers an intuitive way to find and purchase products.  Moving forward, we have also assisted the client in finding ways of shipping their products worldwide, helping to navigate the minefield of post-Brexit order fulfilment.

Tri-Angman is a business thriving in lockdown.  Many people have turned to create and expand their vintage model railway collections with more time now being spent at home.  The client carefully selects and retails classic parts for the model railway enthusiast, and they too found their old site too out of date to trade effectively.
