commercetools, the next-generation commerce software company, Contentstack, a modern content management system (CMS), and EPAM Systems, Inc., a leading global provider of digital platform engineering and software development services, have taken the bakery industry high tech with a new headless commerce solution for Dawn Foods, a global bakery manufacturer and ingredients supplier. The B2B e-commerce solution gives Dawn Foods’ retail bakery customers a fast and easy way to browse and order from the entire product catalog of donut mixes, gourmet chocolates, ready-to-serve cakes, frozen muffins, brownie mixes, icings, fillings, glazes and more. The 100-year-old company that started as a donut shop, today supplies bakeries worldwide with everything from mixed ingredients to fully-baked products and equipment.
With the new e-commerce solution formally announced on July 1, Dawn Foods’ retail bakery customers can access their extensive product catalog, order with one click without having to enter shipping or b****** information and access an online payment portal. Prior to the new solution, all interactions with bakeries happened by telephone or in person. The new solution is built on a microservices-based and responsive platform that works on mobile, tablet and desktop devices.
