Client Profile
Der Küchen Laden, located along the historic main street of Fredericksburg, Texas, is a 3,500 square foot retail shop offering an extensive collection of cookware, kitchen gadgets, and unique culinary finds. The business thrived until the pandemic forced it to close for two months.
The Challenge
Like many businesses, Der Küchen Laden faced an uncertain future due to the global pandemic. The need to quickly adapt the business model to continue operations became urgent. Recognizing the need for an online presence, Der Küchen Laden reached out to WGS (Weaver Government Solutions) for an assessment of its current infrastructure and to discuss options for building an e-commerce website.
